Answer:

The length of the diagonal support is 69 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the box: length = 6 feet

                                       width = 5 feet

                                       height = 8 feet

The diagonal support relates with the diagonal of the base and the height.

From the base of the box, let the length of its diagonal be represented by x. Applying Pythagoras theorem;

/Hyp/^{2} = /Adj 1/^{2} + /Adj 2/^{2}

x^{2} = 6^{2} + 5^{2}

x^{2} = 36 + 25

   = 61

x = \sqrt{61}

  = 7.81

let the length of the diagonal support be represented by l. So that;

/Hyp/^{2} = /Adj 1/^{2} + /Adj 2/^{2}

l^{2} = x^{2} + 8^{2}

  = \sqrt{61} + 64

l  = \sqrt{\sqrt{61} + 64 }

  = 61 + 8

  = 69

Thus, the length of the diagonal support is 69 feet.

saveliy_v [14]

The problem can be translated into an equation that is something like 4/5 + 3/x = 1/2 
we cannot have x equal to zero because the number can be infinite. 
So the LCD here is 10x, so multiply both sides by that to get: 
8x + 30 = 5x 
Subtract 5x and 30 from both sides: 
3x = -30 
divide: 
x = -10 
The solution isn't zero so there is a solution.

chelsea deposits $600 into a bank account and is earning simple interest.After 4 years her account has a balance of $621.60.If C
olga nikolaevna [1]
If she deposited $600 and had $621.60 after four years, then she earned: $621.60 - $600 = $21.60 in four years. It means in one year she earned $21.60 ÷ 4 = $5.40. Now we have to find out how many percent of $600 is $5.40:

$5.40 = x% from $600
5.4 = x/100 * 600
5.4 = 600x/100                 / * 100 (both sides)
540 = 600x                       / ÷ 600 (both sides)
x = 0.9

So the interest rate was 0.9% annually.

Now we have to find out how much is 0.9% from $1100:

$1100 * 0.9% =
= 1100 * 9/1009 =
= 9900/1000 =
= 9.9

It means in one year she would earn $9.90. After 7 years she would earn $9.90 * 7 = $69.30, so she would have in her account:

$1100 + $69.30 = <u>$1169.30</u>
