A rectangular park is 6 miles long and 3 miles wide. How long is a pedestrian route that runs diagonally across the park?
2 answers:
If the path runs diagonally, then a right angle triangle is made, with the width and length as the two sides, and the route taken as the hypotenuse.
Pythagorus' Theorem tells us that; <em /><em /><u><em /></u><em>A</em>² <em>= B</em>² <em>+ C</em>²
Where B and C are the two sides of a right angled triangle, and A is the hypotenuse.
Route taken = A
A² = B² + C²
A² = 3² + 6²
A² = 9 + 36
A² = 45
A = √45
A = 6.7 miles
As it will create a triangle with 90o angle the pythagory says 6+3²=x²⇔ x²=45⇔ x=√45

The 20 pound bag is a better by for only $66.98
Step-by-step explanation:
The large bag is better because the small bag is $27.93 for 7 pounds 7x3=21,so 3x27.93=83.79 is $16.81 more than the cost for the large bag
hope this makes sense;)
Answer: 0.9
Step-by-step explanation:
D is days
m is miles
0.16m + 64d (this is rate 1)
0.08m + 128d ( this is rate 2)
since you plan to rent for one day, input d as 1.
0.16m + 64(1)
0.08m + 128(1)
