Answer:

If the kite has an 11 ft line attached to it and it casts an 8 feet shadow, we will have a rectangle triangle (see picture below).

To find the height x of the kite, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem.

x² = 11² - 8²

x² = 121 - 64

x² = 57

x =√57 Step-by-step explanation:

Danielle’s chemistry professor has a complicated grading system. Each lab counts once and each test counts as two labs. At the e
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

Lab Scores are 84, 81, and 93

Test Scores are 89 and 94

Each lab counts once and each test counts as two labs. At the end of the semester there is a final lab that counts as three regular labs.

Total Number of Labs= (3X1)+(2X2)+(1X3) =3+4+3 =10

To recieve an A(90), the average of her scores must be 90.

Let her final lab score =b

Refer to the attached diagram

Total Score=624+3b

For her average =90

\frac{624+3b}{10}=90

Cross multiplying

624+3b =90 X 10

624+3b =900

3b =900-624

3b =276

Dividing both sides by 3

b= 92

She must score 92 in her final lab to receive an A.
