The lengths of the legs of a right triangle are 8 yards and 15 yards. What is the length, in yards, of the third side of the triangle?
A.23
B.17
C. 12.7
D.11.5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

By inspection it can' be C or D since they are shorter than the 15 yard side.

Also B is just slightly big than 15, so it is mostly likely incorrect

I would guess A is the answer,      proven to be INCORRECT see below

the correct answer is B. 17 yards

check the answer using the pythagorean theorem

a² + b² = c²

a = 8

b = 15

c = √(64 + 225)

  = √289

 = 17   my guess was wrong!!!!

Malia ran 7/12 of a mile. Shona ran 3/4 of a mile. Who ran further?

Answers

Answer:

Shona ran farther

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 *3/3 is 9/12 and 9/12 is bigger than 7/12

Answer:

Shona

Step-by-step explanation:

Both fractions have different denominators. To get a better picture of who ran further, let's have both fractions have the same denominator.

Let's convert the smaller denominator to the bigger one.

In order to do this, we will multiply top and bottom by 3:

[tex]\frac{3}{4} *\frac{3}{3} \\\frac{9}{12}[/tex]

Now, we compare the two fractions by seeing which numerator is closer to denominator.

From this comparison, the converted fraction, [tex]\frac{9}{12}[/tex] is closer to 12.

Therefore, Shona ran further.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you are going to really know the exponent rules. But in jest, you basically need to know that m+n=-2 due to exponent rules.

So?

An example would be

m=4

n=-6

Theorem:

In a triangle, a segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of two sides is parallel and half the length of the third side.

In triangle LMN, segment DF has endpoints which are midpoints of sides LM and MN. That makes segment DF parallel to side LN and half the length of LN.

The shortest path from point D to point N is segments DF and FN.

Point F is the midpoint of segment MN.

MN = 800 m

FN = (1/2)MN = (1/2)(800 m) = 400 m

From the theorem,

DF = (1/2)LN

DF = (1/2)(700 m) = 350 m

shortest path = DF + FN = 350 m + 400 m = 750 m

Answer: 750 m

The area of the Pacific Ocean is about 6.0061 x 10^7 square miles. The area of the Southern Ocean is about 7.8483 x 10^6 square miles. Approximately how many times larger is the area of the Pacific Ocean than that of the Southern Ocean?

Answers

Answer:

7.653 larger

Step-by-step explanation:

Pacific area/Southern area = (6.0061) * 10^7 / (7.8483) * 10^6

                            = 6.0061/ 7.8483    *    10^7/10^6

                            = 0.7653    *    10^(7-6)

                            = 0.7653   *   10^1

                             = 0.7653 * 10

                             = 7.653

Compared to the Southern Ocean, the Pacific Ocean is about 7.653 times larger.
