Answer:

36 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

60 + 15 = 75 soldiers.

By proportion the number of days that the provisions will last

= 45 * (60/75)

= 45 * 4/5

= 36 days.

Determine translation

Mandarinka [93]

The translation moved point B(-5, -2) to B'(6, -5). Although a graph isn't necessary, it helps visualize what happened.

What happened to the x-coordinate of B? It changed from -5 to 6, an INCREASE of 11. So point B moved 11 units to the RIGHT.

What happened to the y-coordinate of B? It changed from -2 to -5, a DECREASE of 3. So point B moved 3 units DOWN.

Given:

Alexis has a rectangular backyard that is 50 yards by 55 yards.

She wants to build a fence that stretches diagonally from one corner to the opposite corner.

To find:

The length of the fencing she needs.

Solution:

We have,

Length = 50 yards

Width = 55 yards

We know that, the diagonal of a rectangle is

$Diagonal=\sqrt{length^2+width^2}$

$Diagonal=\sqrt{(50)^2+(55)^2}$

$Diagonal=\sqrt{2500+3025}$

$Diagonal=\sqrt{5525
}$

On further simplification, we get

$Diagonal=74.3303437$

$Diagonal\approx 74.3$

Therefore, the length of the required fencing is 74.3 yards.
