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

Translate (3,2) to the left one unit. Then reflect the result over the y-axis. What are the coordinates of the final point?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

(-2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Take point (3, 2) and first translate it left one unit.  Now the point is (2, 2)

Now reflect it over the y-axis.  Doing so keeps the y value the same, we have a vertical line of reflection, so we are only changing the distance to the y-axis, which is the x-value.  

Our x value is 2 units away from the y axis, so its reflection will be 2 units away on the other side of the axis.  

The new x value is -2, so the point is (-2, 2)

0.75h + 3 = 12 <br> What's the answer?
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

h = 12

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

0.75h + 3 = 12

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>h</u></em>

  1. Subtract 3 on both sides:                    0.75h = 9
  2. Divide 0.75 on both sides:                  h = 12

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in h into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>h</em>:                    0.75(12) + 3 = 12
  2. Multiply:                               9 + 3 = 12
  3. Add:                                     12 = 12

Here we see that 12 does indeed equal 12.

∴ h = 12 is a solution of the equation.
