So assuming that the field is a perfect square then

if you mean when you walk from home to 1st to 2nd then
60+60=120

if you mean the straight distance (as the crow flies) then
second base is diagonal from home base so

we have a right triangle with side legnths of 60 and 60

use pythagrorean theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
a and b are legs and c=hypotonuse
60^2+60^2=c^2
3600+3600=c^2
7200=c^2
square root both sides
60 times√2=c

the distance from home base to second base=60√2

Line l is the perpendicular bisector of AB. What is the perimeter of ABC
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Perimeter = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

because l bisects AB:

3y+1 = 5y-5

reduce:

2y = 6

y = 3

and:

2x+4 = 4x-12

reduce:

2x = 16

x = 8

AB = (3y+1) + (5y-5)

AB = 8y-4

substitute for y

AB = 8(3)-4

AB = 20

Perimeter = (2x+4) + (4x-12) + 20

reduce:

perimeter = 6x+12

substitute for x:

Perimeter =6(8)+12

reduce:

Perimeter = 60

Write a declaration for a variable rate_of_pay that can hold values like 11.50 or 12.75.
hichkok12 [17]

Float rate_of_pay  a declaration for a variable rate_of_pay that can hold values like 11.50 or 12.75.

What is   float rate_of_pay?

  • In contrast to fixed (or unchangeable) interest rates, floating interest rates change on a regular basis. Companies that offer credit cards and mortgages frequently use floating rates.
  • Floating rates follow the market, a benchmark interest rate, an index, or both.

Is a fixed or floating rate preferable?

  • In a rising rate environment, banks offer fixed rate loans at a higher rate than variable rate loans in order to profit more from the latter when rates rise.
  • Fixed rate loans may have interest rates that are 300–350 basis points higher than floating rate loans.

float rate_of_pay

rate_of_pay = 11.50, 12.75;

\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\
A=\pi r^2\quad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
------\\
A=530.66
\end{cases}\implies 530.66=\pi r^2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{530.66}{\pi }=r^2\implies \sqrt{\cfrac{530.66}{\pi }}=r
