Answer:

  25√2 ≈ 35.36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the leg length for the given conditions. It tells you the relation between legs a, b, and hypotenuse c is ...

  c² = a² +b²

If a=b, and c=50, this becomes ...

  50² = a² +a²

  1250 = a² . . . . divide by 2

  25√2 = a . . . . take the square root

The length of each leg is 25√2 ≈ 35.36 inches.

Renna pushed the button for the elevator to go up, but it would not move. The weight limit for the elevator is 450 kilograms, bu
Marina CMI [18]
First we should figure out how much over the weight limit the passengers are. We can find this by 750-450 which is 300. The amount of weight that needs to get off the elevator is 300 kilograms. Then, we know that each passenger weighs 70 kilograms. We can represent this as 70p.The inequality is 70p \geq 300. Then we can solve by dividing both sides of the inequality by 70. We get p \geq 4.28... Since people only come in whole numbers, and it has to be greater than 4.28, the number of excess passengers is 5.

Hope this helped!
