Max's house has two steps on

Mathematics
1 answer:
Drupady [299]3 years ago

Given:

Max's house has two steps on  the front porch.

Size of each step is the same.

To find:

The total vertical distance covered by  the two steps.

Solution:

From the given figure, it is clear that,

Base length of each step = 6 in

Hypotenuse = 10 in

Let h be the vertical height of each step.

Using Pythagoras theorem, the vertical height of one step is

Base^2+Perpendicular^2=Hypotheuse^2

6^2+h^2=10^2

36+h^2=100

h^2=100-36

h^2=64

Taking square root on both sides.

h=\pm\sqrt{64}

h=\pm 8

Height cannot be negative. So, h = 8 in.

Now,

Vertical height of 2 steps = 2\times 8

                                         = 16

So, the total vertical distance covered by  the two steps is 16 in.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Sin = opposite/hypothenuse
Given opposite = 16
Hypothenuse = ?
Use Pythagorean theorem to find hypothenuse

12^2 + 16^2 = h^2
144 + 256 = h^2
h^2 = 400, h = 20

You know hypothenuse is 20
Opposite/hypothenuse

Solution: 16/20

In a particular country, there are two types of currency: Kabuls and Carumpts. 8 Kabuls and 2 Carumpts are worth $61.70. 3 Kabul
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Kabuls = 7.5

Carumpts= 0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of kabuls

Let y represent the price of carumpts

8x + 2y= 61.70......equation 1

3x + 10y= 31.........equation 2

Multiply equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 8

24x + 6y= 185.1

24x + 80y= 248

-74y = -62.9

y= 62.9/74

y= 0.85

Substitute 0.85 for y in equation 1

8x + 2(0.85) = 61.70

8x + 1.7= 61.70

8x = 61.70-1.7

8x = 60

x= 60/8

x= 7.5

Hence the dollar value for kabuls is 7.5 and carumpts is 0.85
