Answer:
142m
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved by simply using the pythagorean theorem, as you stated at the beginning of the problem, which is: 
You are given the <em>a</em> side and <em>b</em> side that are needed for this equation, so it's all a matter of plugging in the information you have:





Now, because the <em>c</em> is still squared, you must take the square root of 20200 in order to get the length of just side <em>c</em>:
≈142m
X/0.5 = 24
X/0.5(0.5) = 24(0.5)
X = 12

Opposite / hypotenuse
Sin 45 degrees= 7/x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9+10=19.
Replace the 0 in the ten with the 9.
Whenever you face the problem that deals with maxima or minima you should keep in mind that minima/maxima of a function is always a point where it's derivative is equal to zero.
To solve your problem we first need to find an equation of net benefits. Net benefits are expressed as a difference between total benefits and total cost. We can denote this function with B(y).
B(y)=b-c
B(y)=100y-18y²
Now that we have a net benefits function we need find it's derivate with respect to y.

Now we must find at which point this function is equal to zero.
0=100-36y
36y=100
y=2.8
Now that we know at which point our function reaches maxima we just plug that number back into our equation for net benefits and we get our answer.
B(2.8)=100(2.8)-18(2.8)²=138.88≈139.
One thing that always helps is to have your function graphed. It will give you a good insight into how your function behaves and allow you to identify minima/maxima points.
