Answer:

d = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so we know that the horizontal distance between the points is 6 and the vertical distance is 8. Using the Pythagorean theorem we know that 8^2+6^2=d^2 (d is the distance between points). When solving we get

8^2+6^2=d^2

64+36=d^2

100=d^2

d=10

ScrapBook,you cut a picture into a right triangle for your scrapbook, the lengths of the lago of the triangle are 4 inches and 6

AveGali [126]

Answer:

hypotenuse is not a rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Right angled triangle , if a, b are the sides and h be the hypotenuse then relationship between them is given by

$h^{2}$ = $a^{2}$ + $b^{2}$

Here,

a= 4 in. [Given]

b = 6 in. [Given]

Thus ,

$h^{2}$ = $4^{2}$ + $6^{2}$

$h^{2}$ = 16 + 36

$h^{2}$ = 52.

h = $\sqrt{52}$ = 7.21110255......

Clearly, h is not a rational number

Latrell bought 4 bags of powdered sugar. He got a total of 5 1/2 cups of sugar. How many cups of sugar were in each bag?

Stels [109]

So all 4 bags of sugar yielded 5 and 1/2 cups..... well.. how many in each one? well, let's split the 5 and 1/2 evenly in 4 pieces.

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{5}\frac{1}{2}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{11}{2}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{\quad\frac{11}{2} \quad }{4}\implies \cfrac{\quad\frac{11}{2} \quad }{\frac{4}{1}}\implies \cfrac{11}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{11}{8}\implies \stackrel{cups}{1\frac{3}{8}
}$

Need help please help

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

27 of the pets are dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Real easy way to do this, treat 45 (the total) as 100. So, do 45/100 then multiply the result of that by 60, and you end up with 27.

45/100=0.45

0.45*60=27
