Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so if u draw his paths you get a right triangle and so u can use Pythagoras theorem with is a²+b²=c²

so it will look like

c²= 8²+6²

c²=

$\sqrt{100}$

c²=10

Answer:

10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

West and North directions are at right angles to each other.

This forms a right triangle with the hypotenuse being the direct distance between Kurt and Riley's houses.

Using Pythagoras identity in the right triangle with direct distance d , then

d² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100 ( take square root of both sides )

d = $\sqrt{100}$ = 10

The distance between their houses in a straight line is 10 miles

Round each number to the nearest ten and estimate the sum.<br>82.14 + 38.5 + 41.3

blagie [28]

82.14 will be rounded down to 80, 38.5 will be rounded up to 40, and 41.3 will be rounded down to 40.

80 + 40 + 40 = 160

The approximate sum is 160.

It should be x=11 instead of x=-11, so he is not correct because he made a sign error.

Joe is trying to soup up his dragster. He knows that the time needed for the car to go from 0 to 100 miles per hour varies inver

8 seconds

The hardest part of this is setting up the equation -- the calculations are pretty easy.

You're told that the time (needed to go from 0 to 100 MPH) is inversely proportional to the horsepower: what this means is that as horsepower gets larger, time gets smaller. This makes sense since the more horsepower you have, the less time it will take you to get to 100 MPH

You can think of this as:

200 HP = 10 seconds
250 HP = x seconds

You set the equation up as:

250 HP / 200 HP = 10 sec / x sec

Now, just cross multiply and solve:

250 / 200 = 10 / x
250x = (200 x 10)
250x = 2000
x = 2000 / 250
x = 8

So, as you increase the horsepower from 200 to 250, the time decreases from 10 seconds to 8 seconds.

Hope this helps!

Good luck.
