Tyrone is working with two other students to build a border around the school’s triangular garden. Each student brought in one side of the border, but they all used different units to measure the side lengths. The first side is 312 inches long, the second side is 20 feet long, and the third side is 12 yards long. If the measurements need to be in feet, will the three border pieces make a right triangle?

Convert the first side into feet using a proportion.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

NO, the these three border pieces will not make a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Perform the necessary conversions:

1.  312 in converts to

      312 in       1 ft

     ----------- * ------- = 26 ft

        12 in         1

2.  20 ft

3.  12 yd converts to

         12 yd         3 ft

       ------------- * --------- = 36 ft

            1 yd             1

So the three different side lengths are 26 ft, 20 ft and 36 ft.

For the three pieces to make a right triangle, these measurements must satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem:

26² + 20² = 36², or 1296

676 + 400 = 1076

The Theorem is NOT satisfied, and so NO, the these three border pieces will not make a right triangle.

A line passes through the points (-100,-9.5•10^3) and (300,3.05•10^4). Find the value of y when x =200. Write answer in scientific notation.Please help asap with details and steps on how to solve.

Answers

Answer:

2.05x10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is y=100x+500, which can be found through the given points.

So, if x=200, plug that into the equation of the line. y=100(200)+500

y=20000+500

y=20500

In scientific notation, that is 2.05x10^4

Both -1.5 and -3/2 will be halfway between -2 and -1 on the number line. 3/2 will be halfway between 1 and 2. -4/3 will be between -1.5 and -1.

Answer:

Well I can’t really do anything, the best thing I can tell you is that for each number, look at each option and Plot it from there.

You can turn all these into decimals since the number line is a whole number line and decimals are easier to work with in this situation then fractions. So you would have

-1.5, 1.5, -1.5, and -1.33333...

So -1.5 and -3/2 are the same so thats one plot, that would go between -1 and -2.

1.5 goes between 1 and 2

And -1.333...goes more closer to -1 between -2 and -1

Answers

all quadrilateral angles have to add up to a total of 360°, so we just need to add the angles we already have and subtract that from 360.

2) a. 16m

b. 12m

c. 192m

answer for the 1st question:

1) length is 15 ft

2) width is 6ft

3) the area is 90 ft²

step-by-step explanation:

ok so we know that the plan is 2 in/6 ft

step 1-

we need to find the length of the terrace, and we know that the length of the terrace in the plan is 5 in

so by proportion- we'll need to find the length of the 'actual' terrace

2 in/ 6 ft= 5 in/ x ft

x=6*5/2

x=15 ft (we now have the length)

step 2-

now that we know the length, we need to find the width

the length of the terrace in the plan is 2 in

and by proportion- we'll find the 'actual' width of the terrace

2 in/6 ft=2 in/ x ft

x=6*2/2

x=6 ft

and now we'll find the area of the terrace (step 3)-

the formula for the area of a rectangle is a=lw or area=length*width

now we just fill the variables in with what we know-

so we know that 15 ft is the length and that 6 ft is the width-

15*6=90 ft²
