Five hinder and fourty six and two hundred and ten
Answer:
24 kilometers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The shortest path between two points is a straight segment that connects the two points.
Refer to the diagram attached. The 6-km segment and the 8-km segment are normal to each other. Together with the segment that joins the library and the house, the three segments now form a right triangle.
- The two shorter segments are the two legs, and
- The longer segment that joins the library and the house is the hypotenuse.
The length of the hypotenuse can be found with the Pythagorean Theorem.
.
The length of the round-trip will equal to the sum of the length of the three segments:
.
Answer:
b ≤ 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Since no more than 400 pounds of b number of 8 pound boxes can be taken off to ensure that the plane is in balance, this can be represented by the inequality:
8b ≤ 400
b ≤ 400/8
b ≤ 50
This means that a maximum number of 50 8 pounds boxes can be taken off the plane for a 600 pound crate to be put on ensuring that the plane is in balance.
Answer:
475 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = rate × time
time = distance / rate
If x is the speed of the plane in still air:
2100 / (x + 25) = 1890 / (x − 25)
Cross multiply:
2100 (x − 25) = 1890 (x + 25)
Distribute and solve:
2100x − 52500 = 1890x + 47250
210x = 99750
x = 475
4 2/9=8/9
8/9 x 6=48/9= 5 3/9
5 3/9= 5 1/3
