Answer:
2.83
Step-by-step explanation:
using the pythagorean theorem, 
≈
For this problem we can represent the situation as a rectangle triangle.
x: depth of water.
40: Base. "Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot"
x + 8: Hypotenuse. "He notices water lily sticking straight up from the water, whose blossom is 8 cm above the water's surface." Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot".
By the Pythagorean theorem we have:
x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
Clearing x:
x ^ 2 + 1600 = x ^ 2 + 16x + 64
x ^ 2 - x ^ 2 = 16x + 64 - 1600
0 = 16x -1536
1536 = 16x
1536/16 = x
x = 96
answer:
1) x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
2) the depth of the water is
x = 96
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(2x-3)
-(2x - 3) + 5
-2x + 3 + 5= -2x + 8
answer is A
Answer:
solution is -6/5 because:
-1/2(5x-8)=7
-5x+8/2=7
-5x+8=7*2
-5x+8=14
-5x=14-8
-5x=6
x=-6/5
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 9 by 12 to get the surface area of the end of the rectangle.
you should get 108.
multiply 12 by 9 to get the surface area of the side.
you should get 135.
multiply 12 by 15 to get the surface area of the bottom.
you should get 180.
then add all your answers and multiply by 2 this will give you the total surface area and you will find that the answer is A.
