Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
#We use the base diagonal and the height diagonal to calculate the beam's height:
#The volume of the beam can then be calculated as:
Hence, the beam's volume is 
75 mi. East, 70 mi. South, 110 mi.West.
Overall, she drove 110-75= 35 mi. West since east & west are opposite directions.
And 70 mi. South.
In a Pythagorean theorem problem, legs are 35 & 70. And hypotenuse is her diagonal distance from where she started
35^2 + 70^2 = c^2
1225 + 4900 = c^2
6125 = c^2
78.3=c
Meg would be a to be correct
Answer:
The answer is b. But you asked for the thought process so...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.
We know that
Speed = Distance/Time.
Or, Time = Distance/Speed.
So, the time taken to cover a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.
And the time taken to cover a distance of 300 miles on his later trip = 300/3x hr.
= 100/x hr.
So we can clearly see that his new time compared with the old time was: twice as much.
Have a great day :)
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
8(x+2) = 40
8x + 16 = 40
8x = 24
x = 3
