Answer:
432 in.^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The side of the suitcase is a rectangle. One length is 24 inches. The diagonal of the rectangle is 30 inches long. The diagonal is a hypotenuse of a right triangle. The length is a leg. We need to find the other leg.
We use the Pythagorean theorem,
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(24 in.)^2 + b^2 = (30 in.)^2
576 in.^2 + b^2 = 900 in.^2
b^2 = 324 in.^2
b = sqrt(324 in^2)
b = 18 in
area of rectangle = length * width
A = 24 in. * 18 in.
A = 432 in.^2
The answer is a line segment
<h2><u>
Answer:</u></h2>
Jared and Pedro walked a total of <u>4.3 miles</u>
<h2><u>
Step-by-step explanation:</u></h2>
- The equation for distance is <u>speed = distance ÷ time.</u>
- Rearrange the equation to make distance the subject:
<em>(multiply both sides by time)</em>
<em> </em><u>Distance = Speed × Time</u>
- Convert your numbers into suitable units:
1 mile ÷ 15 = <u>0.06m/minute</u>
- Finally, substitute the numbers into the equation and solve:
Distance = 0.06 × 65 = <u>4.3miles</u> (rounded to the nearest decimal place)
