The answer is D none of the above because the actual answer is 12.06 repeating. Hope this helps.
Everything you're posting involves right triangles, and
each one is solved with the Pythagorean formula:
(one leg)² + (other leg)² = (hypotenuse)²
For the tree . . .
Do you see the right triangle ?
They even marked a little box at the base of the stump
to remind you that there's a right angle there.
-- The stump is 3 meters high.
-- The broken part of the tree is on the ground
13 meters away from the stump.
-- The broken part of the tree is the hypotenuse.
(3)² + (13)² = (broken part)²
-- Before it fell over, the broken part stood on top of the 3-meter stump.
==========================================
#4). Your coordinates for point 'G' are correct, but
the coordinates of point 'F' should be (-1, 6), not (1,6).
If you know how to calculate the distance between 2 points,
then that little correction might fix the problem you're having.
The distance between two points is
Square root of [ (x₁-x₂)² + (y₁-y₂)² ]
or
Square root of [ (difference of the x's)² + (difference of the y's)² ] .
Without even using this formula, you could just look at
the graph, and do something like this:
-- From 'F', draw a line 2 units straight down.
-- From 'G', draw a line 4 units to the left.
-- Connect 'F' and 'G' .
Now you have a little right triangle.
The legs are 2 units and 4 units.
The hypotenuse is the distance between 'F' and 'G'.
(2)² + (4)² = (that distance)²
It would take Lin 36 minutes to ride 6 miles. To answer this you must divide 120 by 20. You'll get the answer 6. This is your unit rate. You then take the unit rate, 6, and multiply it by how many miles she rode. In this case, 6*6. Or if you prefer an equation: (120÷20)*6=36min.
namely how many times does 3/4 go into 12⅜?
let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction, and then divide.
Answer:
5.714 liters of the 5% solution and 4.286 of the 40%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the volume of 40% solution and y = volume of the 5% solution.
x + y = 10
0.40x + 0.05y = 0.20(x + y)
From the first equation x = 10 -y so we have:
0.40(10 - y) + 0.05y = 0.20( 10 - y + y)
4 - 0.40y + 0.05y = 2
-0.35y = -2
y = 5.714 liters of the 5%.
and x = 10 - 5.714 = 4.286 liters of the 40% solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
