Answer:

820 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the rule of three in this scenario since this is a ratio problem with one unknown. To do this we simply multiply the diagonal values and divide by the final value. We know that there are a total of 3280.84 ft in a single kilometer, therefore...

1 km  ==  3280.84 ft

0.25 == x

(0.25 * 3280.84) / 1 = 820.21

Now we can see that there are 820.21 ft in the 0.25 kilometers. If we round this to the nearest foot we would round down to a total of 820 feet.

the bus bound for northtown departs every 15 minutes and the bus for eastown departs every 18 minutes from the central station.
USPshnik [31]

Considering the least common factor of 15 and 18, it is found that they will depart from the central station at the same time at 11 AM.

<h3>How to find the time it takes for periodic events to repeat at the same time?</h3>

To find the time that passes between the events happening at the same time, we need to find the least common multiple of the periods.

In this problem, the periods are of 15 and 18, hence their lcm is found as follows:

15 - 18|2

15 - 9|3

5 - 3|3

5 - 1|5

1 - 1

Hence:

lcm(15,18) = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 90 minutes.

They will depart from the central station at the same time in 90 minutes from 9:30 AM, hence at 11 AM.

If
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Given :

→x-y=12

→xy= 3²

=9

Equation formed:

{(x - y)}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  - 2xy

Step by step explanation:

{(12)}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  - 2 \times 9 \\  144   + 18 =  {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  \\  = 162

hope it helped you:)

Does it matter which dimensions you select for the lenght and the width when you find the area of a rectangle? Explain
Levart [38]
It does not. So Long as the length is multipled by the height aka Long edge multiplied with the short edge, you will obtain the area of the rectangle.
