First day: 25% × 100 = 25 ( miles)
Second day : the remaining distance is 100 - 25 = 75 ( milesl
Third day: 40% × 75 = 30
25 + 75 + 30 = 130 (miles)
Well the question doesnt show any number for a side or anything but we can solve this with algebra if we say that a side from one base to next has a length of x. so we know each side has length x and that the shape they make is square. This means we are only searching for the diagonal of a square.
remember that a diagonal forms and isoscoles right triangle with the 2 sides being equal and the diagonal as the hypotenuse. Using the pythagoream theorem we can say that
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
we said all side lengths are x so we can put x in for a and b and get
x^2 + x^2 = c^2
2x^2 = c^2
c = x * squareroot(2)
that is the basic fundamental answer that will always work when working with diagonals of squares.
so if the length between bases is 90 ft, we could plug this in and get
c = 90 ft * squareroot(2)
c = 127.28 ft
Answer:
The first is 30
Step-by-step explanation:
The third is 115
answer: dividing the number by 100
100 ×100= 100000
100000÷100
100
