Answer:

13 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle problem

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

c² = a² + b²

c² = 12² + 5²

c² = 144 + 25

c² = 169

Take the square root of both sides

c = 13

The temperature dropped 5 degrees every hour during 8 hours. How much the temperature drop in all?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

<h3>40 degrees</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature dropped 5 degrees every hour, this can be expressed as;

5 degree = 1 hour

To get the total number of degree dropped fro 8hours, we will say;

x degree = 8hours where x is the temperature drop in all

Solving both equality

5 degree = 1 hour

x degree = 8 hours

cross multiply

x * 1 = 5 * 8

x = 40 degrees

<em>Hence the total temperature drop in all is 40°</em>

Help!! Answer !!! about to run out of time in test!!
Gemiola [76]

\qquad \qquad\huge \underline{\boxed{\sf Answer}}

Here's the solution ~

Let's find the measure of hypotenuse first, by using Pythagoras theorem ;

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: h {}^{2}  =  {8}^{2}  +  {6}^{2}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: h {}^{2}  =  {36}^{}  +  {64}^{}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: h {}^{2}  = 100

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: h {}^{}  =  \sqrt{100}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: h {}^{}  =  {10}

Now, let's find the asked values ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:  \sin(x) =  \dfrac{opposite \: side}{hypotenuse}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:  \sin(x) =  \dfrac{6}{10}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:  \sin(x) =  \dfrac{3}{5}   \: or \: 0.6 \: units

For Cos y :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:  \cos(y) =  \dfrac{adjcant \: side}{hypotenuse}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:  \cos(y)   = \dfrac{6}{10}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:  \cos(y)   = \dfrac{3}{5}  \: or \: 0.6 \: units

As we can see that both sin x and Cos y have equal values, therefore The required relationships is equality.

I.e Sin x = Cos y

Hope it helps ~

An 8-oz bottle of ketchup costs $1.39.
inna [77]
First, you need to find how much an ounce costs. To do that, you have to divide 1.39 by 8. Then you get about 0.17. Now, you multiply 0.17 by 14, and get the answer of 2.38. Therefore, a 14-oz bottle of ketchup costs $2.38.
