Let's assume the question as per the conception of diagram provided in attachment.

We have given that we are having a baseball diamond which is a square. Let that given square be ABCD. Distance from base to base means that the length of side of square is 90ft. As all sides of square are equal then measure of all sides of square are 90ft and we have asked to find out the length of the diagonal (BD) through which ball should cross. We have given data provided is that,

  • Length of sides (s) = 90Ft

  • Diagonal (BD) = ?

We know the standard formula which is,

\implies\rm{s =  \frac{d}{ \sqrt{2} } }

Substituting values in given formula,

\implies\rm{90 =  \frac{d}{ \sqrt{2} } }

\implies\rm{d = 90  \times  \sqrt{2} }

\implies\rm{d = 90 \sqrt{2} }

\implies\rm{d = 90  \times 1.42 \: ... \: ( \sqrt{2}  = 1.42)}

\implies\rm{d = 127.8}

\implies\rm{d = 127}

  • Do the correct answer is option B) which is 127ft

BSE is square.

Let side be s

  • s=90ft

Diagonal be d

\\ \tt\longmapsto s=\dfrac{d}{\sqrt{2}}

\\ \tt\longmapsto d=s\sqrt{2}

\\ \tt\longmapsto d=90\sqrt{2}

\\ \tt\longmapsto d=127ft

-6x + 18 = 7- (4x + 9) help will give brainlyist
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

X = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + 18 = 7 - (4x + 9)

first we simplify the parentheses.

distribute the invisible number one created by the negative sign in front of the parentheses to get -6x + 18 = 7 - 4x - 9

then simplify further by subtracting 9 from the right side, leaving you with

-6x + 18 = -2 - 4x

next, add 2 to both sides to isolate the variable.

-6x + 20 = -4x

then, to isolate the variable further add 6x to both sides.

20 = -4x

divide both sides by -4 to isolate the variable

-5 = x

so, x = -5

Please help me thanks
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

16.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

a = 11

c = 20

11^2 + b^2 = 20^2

121 + b^2 = 400

b^2 = 279

b = sqrt(279) = 16.7
