Answer:

x ≈ +15.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a right triangle, the Pythagorean Theorem applies:

8² + 13² = x² = 233, so that x = +√233, or approximately x ≈ +15.3

Kali spent half of her weekly allowance on clothes. To earn more money her parents let her clean the gutters for $9. What is her

Ber [7]

So to find the answer to this, you have to consider that $\frac{1}{2} x + 9 = 13$ - half because half the pocket money (x) was spend on clothes, then plus 9 because that's how much extra she gained and 13 because that was the result of all the changes.

To solve this, first subtract 9 from both side, which leaves you with $\frac{1}{2} x = 4$ and $\frac{1}{2} x$ is the same as $\frac{1x}{2}$ , so to solve this, multiply both sides of the equation by two, resulting in $x = 8$ . SO from this we can conclude that the weekly allowance is $8

Endpoints of segment MN have coordinates (0, 0), (5, 1). The endpoints of segment AB have coordinates (1 1/22 , 2 1/4 ) and (−2

Answer: $k=18\dfrac{8}{11}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line passing through two points, then

$Slope=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Endpoints of segment MN have coordinates (0, 0) and (5, 1).

Slope of MN $=\dfrac{1-0}{5-0}=\dfrac{1}{5}$

The endpoints of segment AB have coordinates $\left(1\dfrac{1}{22} , 2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)$ and $\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4} , k\right)$ .

$A=\left(1\dfrac{1}{22} , 2\dfrac{1}{4}\right)=\left(\dfrac{23}{22} ,\dfrac{9}{4}\right)$

$B=\left(-2\dfrac{1}{4} , k\right)=\left(-\dfrac{9}{4} , k\right)$ .

Slope of AB $=\dfrac{k-\frac{9}{4}}{-\frac{9}{4}-\dfrac{23}{22}}$

$=\dfrac{\frac{4k-9}{4}}{\frac{-99-46}{44}}$

$=\dfrac{4k-9}{4}\times \dfrac{44}{-145}$

$=4k-9\times \dfrac{11}{-145}$

$=\dfrac{44k-99}{-145}$

Product of slopes of two perpendicular segments is -1.

Slope of MN × Slope of AB = -1

$\dfrac{1}{5}\times \dfrac{44k-99}{-145}=-1$

$\dfrac{44k-99}{-725}=-1$

$44k-99=725$

$44k=725+99$

$k=\dfrac{824}{44}$

$k=\dfrac{206}{11}$

$k=18\dfrac{8}{11}$

Therefore, the value of k is $k=18\dfrac{8}{11}$ .

If a room is 20 by 24 feet, how big is it on a floor plan where 1/2 inch represents 1 foot?

Naddik [55]

Well if you take the room being 20 x 24. Thats 480 feet. But you want how large in 1/2 inch. 1/2 inch is 1/24 of a foot. So if we take 480 feet being 1 and times it by 24. (480 x 24) You get 11,520 half inches. Brainliest would be much appreciated if you feel its deserved.
