Find the length of the diagonal of a rectangle. Round your answer to nearest tenth.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marina86 [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

19.2m

Step-by-step explanation:

"Slice" the rectangle into two right triangles (slice along the diagonal). Now you can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the length of the diagonal:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\12^{2}+15^{2} =c^{2} \\144+225=c^{2} \\\sqrt{369} =\sqrt{c^{2} }\\19.2m =c

Sam drove for 2 hours at 45 mph. He has the same distance remaining. How fast should he drive to make his average speed 60 mph?
Goshia [24]
Speed (S) = Distance (D) / time (t)

First stretch

45 = D / 2

D = 45*2

D = 90 mp

How is the same distance:

Second stretch

S = 90 / t

Average speed (AS):

AS = (S1+S2) / 2

60 = [45+(90/t)] / 2

120 = 45+90/t

120-45 = 90/t

75 = 90/t

t = 90/75

t = 1,2 h

________________________

And now:

S = 90 / t

S = 90 / 1,2

S = 75 mph

The length of a rectangular poster is 9 more inches than two times its width. The area of the poster is 161 square inches. Solve
irinina [24]

Answer:

<u>Width = 7 inches</u>

<u>Length = 23 inches</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

  • length = 2x + 9
  • width = x

Equating to area :

  • (2x + 9)(x) = 161
  • 2x² + 9x = 161
  • 2x² + 9x - 161 = 0
  • 2x² - 14x + 23x - 161 = 0
  • 2x(x - 7) + 23(x - 7) = 0
  • x - 7 = 0
  • x = 7

Dimensions are :

  • <u>Width = 7 inches</u>
  • Length = 2(7) + 9
  • <u>Length = 23 inches</u>

If a polynomial function f(x) has roots -9 and 7-i, what must be a factor of f(x)
Likurg_2 [28]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x + 9 and (x + ( i - 7)) are factors

Discussion:

If f(x) has roots -9 and 7-i then

f(x) = g(x)(x - (-9))  (x - (7-i))            ( g(x) is a polynomial of degree less than f(x))

That is, x + 9 and (x + ( i - 7)) are factors of f(x)

BTW: if the coefficients of f(x) are real (not stated in the Question) then the conjugate of 7-i, i.e. 7 + i, is  also be a root.

Thank you,

MrB
