You would do 45 divided by 9 which is 5. Then you do 5x7= 35 and that's your answer
If you need the geometry and trigonometry I'll post those. Instead I found an answer at this link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMAT6450/Class%20Projects/Scarpelli/Scarpelli_MathematicsBaseballActivity.....
The distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet and from home plate to second base is <span>127.28 feet.
Pitcher's Mound to 2nd base = </span><span>
<span>
<span>
66.78</span> </span>f</span>eet
Given those distances, we KNOW a 50 foot sprinkler will NOT reach home plate and second base from the pitcher's mound.
I didn't figure out the pitcher's mound to 1st or to 3rd, since the question is already answered.
8x+3y=9
-8x. -8x
3y = -8x+9
3y/3 = (-8x+9)/3
y = -8/3x +3
so, slope is -8/3
The compass will lose its magnetic properties
