Answer:
The height of rectangle is 5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
A rectangle is drawn so the width is 7 inches longer than the height. If the rectangle’s diagonal measurement is 13 inches, Find the height
Let
x -----> the width of the rectangle in inches
y ----> the height of the rectangle in inches
d ---> diagonal measurement of the rectangle in inches
we know that
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

we have

so

----> equation A
---> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A

solve for y



solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=5
see the attached figure
therefore
The height of rectangle is 5 inches
<span>The method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.</span>
Find mph
120/3 = 40 mph
200/40 = 5 hours to travel 200 miles
Answer: x=2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The 3 pack cost $9.45
3 single cartons would have cost: 3 x 4.20 = $12.60
Difference in cost: 12.60 - 9.45 = $3.15
Percent savings : 3.15/ 9.45 = 0.3333
0.333 x 109 = 33.33%
Round the answer as needed
