Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of a pair of skis = 6 feet 11 inches

Maximum length of a the skis that can be fitted in a wardrobe is along the diagonal of the wardrobe.

From the picture attached,

BC² = 3² + 2² [By Pythagoras theorem]

BC = √(13)

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,

AB² = AC² + BC²

AB² = 6² + (√13)²

= 36 + 13

AB = √49

Ab = 7 feet

Since, "diagonal length of the wardrobe is more than the length of skis,

skis can be fitted"

Given that 8x – 3y = 36

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

x = 45/8

Step-by-step explanation:

8x – 3y = 36

Let y=3

8x – 3*3 = 36

8x - 9 = 36

Add 9 to each side

8x -9+9 = 36+9

8x = 45

Divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 45/8

x = 45/8
