Answer:

Matha - Jim = 200 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Jim's distance</u></em>

J = sqrt(w^2 + L^2)

  • w = 300
  • L = 400

J = sqrt(300^2 + 400^2)

J = sqrt(900 + 1600)

J = sqrt(2500)

J = 500

<em><u>Martha's distance</u></em>

M = 300 + 400

M = 700 Feet

Answer

M - J = 700 - 500 = 200

Jim walks 200 feet less than Martha.

What is m&lt;KNL? <br>Enter your answer in the box<br>​
steposvetlana [31]

The measurement of ∠KNL   is 102°

First, you must set up an equation to find x.

5x+2=[3(x+14)

Then, you must simplify both sides of the equation.

5x+2=3x+42

Next, subtract 3x on both sides.

2x+2=42

Then, subtract 2 on each side.

2x=40

Next, divide 2 on each side.

x=20

Now that we have the value of x, we can substitute it in for angle KNL.

[3(20+14)]

[3(34)]

102

102°

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:

Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet

Number of students = 13

2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:

4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)

9/2 * 13 = 117/2

<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>

3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:

4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)

(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)

(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2

<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>

PLEASE HELP URGENT!! DONT LINK FILES!!! HELP!!
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Base = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle can be calculated as:

Area = 0.5 x Base x Height

The values of the area and the height are given in order to find the length.

A= 52 in^2

Height= 13

First we have to find the base or the length. Using the values above we can set up the equation as:

1. 52= (0.5)(13)(b)

2. 52/0.5(13)

3. b=8

Answer: The length of the guitar or the base would be 8 inches.

I hope this helps and for future problems regarding this topic use the formula above!!

Formula: 0.5 x Base x Height
