Answer:

22.4

Step-by-step explanation:

using altitude theorem, the height of the triangle is 20

let y = height

10/y = y/40

y² = 400

y = $\sqrt{400}$ or 20

Now we can us the Pythagorean Theorem to find 'x':

10² + 20² = x²

100 + 400 = x²

x= $\sqrt{500}$ ≈ 22.4

Please help ASAP. I am confused

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

So if ∠X is 70° then ∠Y is most likely going to be 70° as well. So if you take 180° which is a straight line and subtract both of the 70°'s you'd get 40°. This answer seems pretty accurate to me.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps you out! :)

At the Boston Marathon there were 20,000 runners who finished the race. Each runner ran a distance of 26 miles. If you add toget

andre [41]

Answer:

the runners have gone 20.8 times around the globe all together

Step-by-step explanation:

At the Bostom Marathon, we have a total of

N = 20,000 runners

We know that each runner ran a distance of

d = 26 miles

Therefore, the total distance travelled by all runners combined is:

$D=Nd=(20,000)(26)=5.2\cdot 10^5 mi$

We know that the circumference of the Earth is

$c=2.5\cdot 10^4 mi$

Here we want to find how many times around the globe would the marathon runners have gone. This can be found by calculating the following ratio:

$n=\frac{D}{c}$

And substituting the values, we find:

$n=\frac{5.2\cdot 10^5}{2.5\cdot 10^4}=20.8$

So, the runners have gone 20.8 times around the globe all together.
