The shortest distance they have to travel to return to their starting point is 9.4 miles.
Explanation
The joggers run 8 mile north and then runs 5 miles west. we have to calculate the shortest distance they have to travel to return to their starting point.
The distance traveled north and west respectively makes the height and base of a right angled triangle.
to find the shortest distance to the starting point, the hypotenuse has to be determined.
height h=8 miles
base b=5 miles
using pythagoras theorem

The shortest distance to the starting point is 9.4 miles

<h3>Andre Bought:</h3><h3>• 1 Baseball Glove For $34 Each</h3><h3>• 2 Packs of Socks For $6 - 7.75% Each</h3>
<h3 /><h3>$34 + $8</h3><h3>= $42</h3><h3><u>Andre Paid A Total of $42</u></h3>
<h3>7.75% × $6 ÷ 100</h3><h3>= 0.465 × 2</h3><h3>= 0.93%</h3><h3><u>Andre Saved 0.93% In Total At The Sale</u></h3>

Total coins = 10 ( 4 + 3 + 3 = 10).
The probability of picking a nickel first = 4/10 = 2/5 ( 4 nickels out of 10 total).
The probability of picking a dime second = 3/9 = 1/3 ( 3 dimes out of 9 coins left).
The probability of picking the third coin as a quarter = 3/8 ( 3 quarters out of 8 coins left).
The probability of picking all three in that order = 2/5 x 1/3 x 3/8 = 1/20
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔABC is 45 45 90 right triangle
The ratio of leg: hypo = a : a√2
Given: hypo AC = 6√2; so AB = BC = 6
ΔBCD is 30 60 90 right triangle
The ratio of short leg : long leg : hypo = x : x√3 : 2x
Hypo. BC = 6 = 2 (3)
So short leg BD = x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
the sequence is a geometric sequence
simply use the formula:
t(n) = a * (r)^n-1
where n = 8, a = 27, r = 4/3
