These calculations are based on the drawing of the file enclosed.
There are three right triangles.
From the big right triangle:
a^2 + b^2 = 25^2
From the small right triangle on the left side:
(25-x)^2 + 10^2 = a^2
From the small right triangle on the right side
x^2 +10^2 = b^2
=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = a^2 + b^2
=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = 25^2
=> 25^2 - 50x + x^2 + 10^2 + 10^2 = 25^2
=> x^2 -50x + 100 =0
Use the quadratic formular to find the roots:
x = 2.1 and x = 47.9
Distance from back: 25 - 2.1 = 22.9 ft
Answer: 22.9 ft
I'm assuming the pail holds 6 3/4 (not 634) gallons of water.
1 gallon= 16 cups
Multiply total gallons by cups per 1 gallon.
= 6 3/4 cups * 16 cups/gallon
convert mixed number to improper fraction
= 27/4 * 16
multiply numerators
= (27*16)/4
multiply in parentheses
= 432/4
= 108 cups
ANSWER: There are 108 cups
Hope this helps! :)
Ax + z = aw - y....subtract aw from both sides
ax - aw + z = -y....subtract z from both sides
ax - aw = -y - z....factor out a on the left side
a(x - w) = -y - z...divide both sides by (x-w)
a = (-y - z) / (x - w)
I think it’s C cause it’s never ending but not repeating at the same time
