= <u>187.3 yards</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The set-up will represent a triangle whereby the :

  • Width = Height = 150 yards
  • Diagonal = Hypotenuse = 240 yards
  • Length = Base = ?

{a}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}  -  {b}^{2}  \\ {a}^{2} =  {240}^{2}  -  {150}^{2}  \\ {a}^{2} = 57600 - 22500 \\  \sqrt{ {a}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{35100}  \\ a = 187.3yards \: (rounded \: off \: to \: 1dp)

Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>First step is that you need to have the same denominators so 1/3=2/6</em>

<em>If she spent 1/6 on snacks and 2/6 on a book which means she spent 3/6</em>

<em>so the fraction of what she saved is 3/6 or 1/2</em>

Identify the equation in slope-intercept form for the line containing the point (0,7) and perpendicular to y=−5/4x+11/4. HELP PL
777dan777 [17]

To write the equation of a line I need slope and y intercept (0,y)

I have y intercept (0,7)  of +7 as written in the equation

The equation y=-5/4x + 11/4 has a slope of -5/4

To get perpendicular slope is negated reciprocal

so take -5/4 and flip it -4/5 and change the sign (in this case negative to positive)  4/5

so the new equation is y=4/5x +7 (third one)
