A dog runs 100 yards from one corner of a rectangular park to the opposite corner. If the length of the park is 28 yards, what is the width?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  96 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal through the park cuts the rectangle into two right triangles. The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relationship between the sides of a right triangle and its hypotenuse: the sum of the squares of the sides is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

The diagonal is the hypotenuse, so we have ...

  100² = 28² + w²

  w = √(10000 -784) = 96

The width of the park is 96 yards.

Additional comment

The integer side lengths of a right triangle form what is called a "Pythagorean triple." One of the most often seen of these is (3, 4, 5). Other commonly seen Pythagorean triples are (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17).

You may notice that the numbers here are those of the (7, 24, 25) Pythagorean triple, multiplied by 4. If you recognize the given lengths as having the ratio 28:100 = 7:25, you have the clue you need to determine the answer simply from your knowledge of Pythagorean triples.

we eliminate these two options

because remember quadratic function standard form

recall that, if

a is negative then the graph will flip upside down

but a is positive so it won't flip upside down therefore,

these two are our answer

option-A:

it seems good but it's not the answer according to the given condition however it's true for the opposite of the given condition:

option-C:

it's our answer since the condition x<-2 for the quadratic function tells us everything is input For x which is less than -2 the graph-c as well yields so

likewise the absolute value function. the condition tells everything is input for x which is greater than or equal to -2 the graph also says so

find the difference between 0.1 kg and 75g​

Answers

Answer:

25 g

Step-by-step explanation:

0.1 kg can be written as 100 grams

& 75 g

while 1 kg is 1000 grams

so difference:-

(100- 75 ) grams

= 25 g

The difference between 0.1 kg and 75 g is 25 grams. To find the difference between 0.1 kg and 75g, you need to make sure both quantities have the same unit.

Since 1 kg is equal to 1000 g, you can convert 0.1 kg to grams:

0.1 kg = 0.1 * 1000 g = 100 g

Now, the two quantities are in the same unit:

0.1 kg - 75 g = 100 g - 75 g = 25 g

So, the difference between 0.1 kg and 75 g is 25 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

theres no quotient

Answer:

The answer is:  (12/7) OR  (1 5/7) <-- (SIMPLIFIED)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would divide your original fraction by 3 : (5 1/7 / 3= 36/21). Next, you would  simplify  the fraction you have know (36/21) and simplify it by dividing the numerator (top number) & denominator ( bottom number) both by 3. ( 36/3= 12)  and ( 21/ 3= 7) . and so you would get your fraction 12/7 and or 1 5/7 ( if they want it to be simplified)
