Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

s = √( 4.2*4.2 + (s/2)(s/2) )

s = √( 4.2*4.2 + (s^2/4) )

s^2= 4.2*4.2 + (s^2/4)

s^2 - (s^2/4) = 4.2*4.2

(4s^2/4) - (s^2/4) = 4.2*4.2

(3s^2/4) = 4.2*4.2

(3/4)s^2 = 4.2*4.2

s^2= 4.2*4.2*(4/3)

s = √( 4.2*4.2*(4/3) )

s = 2*4.2 * √( 1/3 )

s = 4.84974226119

answer:

perimeter = 3 * 4.84974226119

perimeter = 14.5492267836 meters

Plz help with this word problem

Yeah, these are tough.

When the plane is flying in the same direction as the wind,
the wind helps it cover ground faster.

Plane + Wind = 460 mph

When the plane is flying opposite to the wind, the wind makes it
cover ground slower.

Plane - Wind = 400 mph

================================

OK.  So far we have

Plane + Wind = 460 mph
Plane - Wind = 400 mph

Add the two equations, and you get

2 Plane + zero = 860 mph

Divide each side by 2:  Plane = 430 mph

Plug that into the first equation:     430mph + Wind = 460 mph

Subtract 430 mph from each side:  Wind = 30 mph

The point slope form of the equation of the line that passes Through (-4,3) and (12,1) is y-1=1\4(x-12) what is the standard for
Leokris [45]
Something is wrong here, the slope is off...

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(1-3)/(12--4)

m=-2/16

m=-1/8

So the point slope form should be:

y-1=(-1/8)(x-12)

The standard form of the line is ax+by=c so we need to rearrange it to reflect the this form...multiply both sides by -8 to get:

8-8y=x-12  subtract 8 from both sides

-8y=x-20  subtract x from both sides

-x-8y=-20  by convention, the coefficient of x should be positive, multiply both sides by -1

x+8y=20

....

Just to show that the equation given you is incorrect..

y-1=(x-12)/4  using the point (-4,3)

3-1=(-4-12)/4

2=-16/4

2=-4  which is obviously incorrect...(they had the wrong slope for the two points given)

Answer:

1. 69

2. 2989

3. Incomplete

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Covert 1000101 from base 2 to base 10

To convert a number from base 2 to base 10, we have to multiply individual digits of that number by the power of the base the digit represent.

First, we start our digit representation from the rightmost digit to the leftmost digit

This will give us

1

0

1

0

0

0

1

(notice that the digits are represented in a backward direction)

The first digit is at position 0, the next is at position 1, the next is at 2 till we get to the last digit; i.e.

1 -> 0

0 -> 1

1 -> 2

0 -> 3

0 -> 4

0 -> 5

1 -> 6

The next step is to remove the 0 individual digits, so we have

1 -> 0

1 -> 2

1 -> 6

After the we multiply the individual digits by the power of the base the digit represent

In this question, we're dealing with base 2

So, this gives us

1 * 2^0 = 1 * 1 = 1

1 * 2^2 = 1 * 4 = 4

1 * 2^6 = 1 * 64 = 64

The last step is to add up the results above

1 + 4 + 64 =69

2. Convert bad from base 16 to base 10

We apply the same method in question 1 to this

First, we start our digit representation from the rightmost to the leftmost digit

d

a

b

Then we introduce the position

d -> 0

a -> 1

b -> 2

There's no 0 digits in this, so we skip this step.

The next step after this is to convert each hexadecimal alphabet to hexadecimal digits

The hexadecimal represents digits in the following way;

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f

Notice that after 9, it switched to alphabet a, then b till it gets to f

The alphabets represents numbers. a represents 10; b, 11; c, 12; d, 13; e, 14 and f, 15.

So, our hexadecimal alphabets will be replaced with the digits equivalent

13 -> 0

10 -> 1

11 -> 2

Then we multiply the individual digits by the power of the base of the digits represent.

Here, we're dealing with base 16.

So, we have

13 * 16^0 = 13 * 1 = 13

10 * 16^1 = 10 * 16 = 160

11 * 16^2 = 11 * 256 = 2816

Then we add these results

13 + 160 + 2816 = 2989

3. Incomplete question.

In question 1, we converted from base 2 to base 10

Here, I'll convert the result in question 1 to base 2

So I'll be working base on this following question.

Convert 69 in base 10 to base 2

Converting from base 10 to any base requires division (unlike question 1 and 2 above)

An important thing to note is the remainder and the resulting quotient (as, will be seen later)

It's also to be noted that, the division will not stop until the resulting quotient equals 0.

Also, the divisor will be the base we're converting from.

The divisor is 2, in this case.

Step 1. Divide 69 by 2

69/2 = 34 remainder 1.

Is 34 equals to 0? No.

Meaning that we have to continue dividing

Step 2. 34/2 = 17 remainder 0

Step 3. 17/2 = 8 remainder 1

Step 4 8/2 = 4 remainder 0

Step 5. 4/0 = 2 remainder 0

Step 6. 2/2 = 1 remainder 0

Step 7. 1/2 = 0 remainder 1

We stop here, because our quotient is now 0

Our results is the reminder; but we have to pick each remainder from the bottom to the top;

i.e. 1000101

So, 69 in base 10 equals 1000101 in base 2
