A) 17 miles because using Pythagorean theory we know that a squared + b squared = c squared

Answer:

D) 40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must find the distance between the mall and the house.  The figure formed is a right triangle.  The length of the side from the mall to the house forms the hypotenuse of the triangle.  We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length:

a² + b² = c²

The two legs of the triangle, a and b, are 15 and 8:

15² + 8² = c²

225 + 64 = c²

289 = c²

Take the square root of each side:

√289 = √(c²)

17 = c

This makes the total distance

15+8+17= 40 miles

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

  112

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 squares in the interval [1, 100], and there are 4 cubes in that interval, two of which are also squares (1, and 64). Hence 12 numbers must be added to the list to make up for the ones that are stricken. The 100th number is 112.

Amy has $26 to spend on school supplies. After buying a notebook for $3.50 and 8 pens of equal cost, she had $16.18 left. Write
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

26-3.50-8x=16.18

Step-by-step explanation:

To create an equation representing what she spent, we need to start with the money she had and end with the money she has left.

We know that she originally had $26, but when she was done shopping, she had $16.18. To get from $26 to $16.18, you have to subtract the cost. That gives you 26 - [ cost ] = 16.18

We know that she spent $3.50 on a notebook and  8 pens of an unknown cost. The unknown cost can be represented by x. To find the total cost, you must add the costs of what she bought together. That gives you 3.50 - 8x.

Plug the expression of the cost into the equation, and boom it's done.

26 - 3.50 - 8x = 16.18

Starting with the definition 1.00in. = 2.54 cm, find the number of kilometers in 7.00mi . Please describe conversions.
ella [17]
The answer is 11.265408 km.

To calculate the number of kilometers, we will use several conversions:
A) 1 mi = 63,360 in
B) 1 in = 2.54 cm
C) 1 cm = 0.00001 km

A) 1 mi = 63,360 in
    7 mi = 63,360 in · 7 = 443,520 in

B) 1 in = 2.54 cm
    443,520 in = 2.54 cm · 443,520 = 1,126,540.80 cm

C) 1 cm = 0.001 km
    1,126,540.80 cm = 0.00001 km · 1,126,540.80 = 11.265408 km
