D. 23.4

Step-by-step explanation:

√(15^2 + 18^2) = ~ 23.4

Answer:

D) 23.4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c² where a and b are legs (sides) and c is the hypotenuse (in this case z or the missing side). So, your new equation is: 15² + 18² = z² or 225 + 324 = z². Add 225 + 324 to get 549. To solve for z, find the square root of 549: 23.430749. Rounded to the nearest tenth, this is 23.4.

Hope it helps!

$\frac{12n^{3} + 8n^{2} - 6n}{2n^{2}} = \frac{12n^{3}}{2n^{2}} + \frac{8n^{2}}{2n^{2}} - \frac{6n}{2n^{2}} = 6n + 4 - \frac{3}{n}$

The length of a rectangular floor is 2 feet more than the width. The area of the floor is 168 square feet. Kim wants to use a ru

defon

The area of the rectangular is expressed in the formula A = l*w where l is the length and w is the width. from the first satement, l = 2 + w; then A = (2+w)*w = 2w + w^2. If A is equal to 168, then w should be equal to 12 feet and l is equal to 14 feet. Hence the width due to the border limits is 12- 2*2 equal to 8 feet
