Answer: 10.2"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The dimension of the rectangular box is 2"\times 6"\times8"

If the Straw  fits exactly into the box diagonally

So, the length of the longest diagonal of the rectangular box is equal to the length of the straw i.e.

\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{2^2+6^2+8^2}\\\\\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{4+36+64}\\\\\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{104}\\\Rightarrow l=10.19\approx 10.2"

Hello there,


So we are trying to find out is the angle ∠BAC in degrees. 

So what we are going to do is. . .25- (2x-10)°.

That answer would be -2x+35.

So ∠BAC= -2x+35°.
Hope this helps.

Find the Missing Numerator and Denominator
n200080 [17]

Answer:

  missing denominator: 5

  missing numerator: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the product of fractions is formed by multiplying numerators and multiplying denominators.

  \dfrac{3}{d}\times\dfrac{n}{4}=\dfrac{3n}{4d}=\dfrac{9}{20}

This gives rise to two equations:

  3n = 9   ⇒   n = 3

  4d = 20   ⇒   d = 5

The missing denominator is 5; the missing numerator is 3.

__

  \dfrac{3}{5}\times\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{9}{20}
