The Seventh Inning Stretch Company has created a new baseball that will improve your chances of hitting a home run. The 36-inch

bat is only available online. To protect the bat, it must be shipped so the handle of the bat is in one corner of the box and the top portion of the bat touches the opposite diagonal corner.The shipping box has a length of 30 inches and a height of 6 inches. How wide should the box be to fit the 36-inch bat? Show and explain your work.

Answer:

Width of the box = 18.97 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the bat = 36 inches.

That means length of the diagonal of the bat (BC) = 36 inches

By applying Pythagoras theorem in right triangle BDC,

BC² = BD² + CD²

BC² = (30)² + w² -------(1)

BY applying Pythagoras theorem in right triangle ABC,

AC² = AB² + BC²

(36)² = 6² + BC²

By substituting the value of BC from equation (1),

(36)² = 6² + (30)² + w²

1296 = 36 + 900 + w²

w² = 1296 - 936

w = √360

w = 18.97 inches

Ms. McClain conducted an experiment
joja [24]

Answer:  1

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental probability is the actual result you get from an experement.

Theoretical probability is the change that you will get that result.

(for example: flipping a coin, the Theoretical probability is 50/50 but after testing the Experimental probability might be 47/53)

therefore,

1/6 is the Theoretical probability because you are using a six-sided number cube.

for the Theoretical probability and the Experimental probability to be the same, the fraction of the roll must equal 1/6.

1/6 equals 8/48.

therefore, since the numbers 1 and 6 were both rolled 8 times out of 48 they are consistant with the Theoretical probability of 1/6.

6 is not one of the answer choices listed so 1 must be your answer.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Go through the explanation you should be able to solve them

Step-by-step explanation:

How do you know a difference of two square;

Let's consider the example below;

x^2 - 9 = ( x+ 3)( x-3); this is a difference of two square because 9 is a perfect square.

Let's consider another example,

2x^2 - 18

If we divide through by 2 we have:

2x^2/2 -18 /2 = x^2 - 9 ; which is a perfect square as shown above

Let's take another example;

x^6 - 64

The above expression is the same as;

(x^3)^2 -( 8)^2= (x^3 + 8) (x^3 -8); this is a difference of 2 square.

Let's take another example

a^5 - y^6 ; a^5 - (y ^3)^2

We cannot simplify a^5 as we did for y^6; hence the expression is not a perfect square

Lastly let's consider

a^4 - b^4 we can simplify it as (a^2)^2 - (b^2)^2 ; which is a perfect square because it evaluates to

(a^2 + b^2) ( a^2 - b^2)
