Hey there! :D
Think of this like a triangle. The dock is 15 feet above ground. It is the side of the triangle. The line connecting the bottom of the dock to the base of the conveyor belt is 40 feet. This is like the base.
The conveyor belt itself is at a diagonal, and should be the hypotenuse.
Use the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2+b^2=c^2
15^2+40^2= c^2
225+1,600= c^2
Add the values together.
1,825= c^2
Find the square root of 1,825.
c= 42.7 (rounded to the nearest tenth)
The conveyor belt is 42.7 feet long.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Sam is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagorean Theorem, we can find the length of diagonal SQ as 13.4 (6^2 + 12^2 = c^2, 36 + 144 = c^2, sqrt(180) = c, c is approx 13.4). We can do the same for diagonal OM (6^2 + 6^2 = c^2, 36 + 36 = c^2, 72 = c^2, sqrt(72) = c, c is approx 8.5). Sam is therefore incorrect because 13.4 is not double of 8.5.
The coreect point is (4,7)
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 1 = 9
Simplifying
x + 1 = 9
Reorder the terms:
1 + x = 9
Solving
1 + x = 9
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + x = 9 + -1
Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + x = 9 + -1
x = 9 + -1
Combine like terms: 9 + -1 = 8
x = 8
Simplifying
x = 8
