Steve is turning half of his backyard into a chicken pen. His backyard is a 24-meter by 45-meter rectangle. He wants to put a chicken wire fence along the west side of the yard, the south side of the yard, and along the diagonal connecting the northwest to the southeast corner of the yard. How many meters of fencing will Steve need to fully enclose this area?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The diagonal line is equal to \sqrt{24^(2) + 45^(2) } using pythagoras' theorem of a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2). This gives us a value of 51m for the diagonal line.

TOTAL; 51+24+45=120m of fencing 
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

51 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the diagonal line.

The equation for the Pythagorean Theorem is

a^2 + b^2 = c^2a  

2

+b  

2

=c  

2

a, squared, plus, b, squared, equals, c, squared

where aaa and bbb are the lengths of the two legs of the triangle, and ccc is the length of the hypotenuse.

In this case a=24,b=45,a=24,b=45,a, equals, 24, comma, b, equals, 45, comma and c=xc=xc, equals, x.

Hint #33 / 4

\begin{aligned} 24^2+45^2 & = x^2\\ 576+2025 & = x^2\\ 2601 & = x^2\\ \sqrt{2601} & = x\\ 51 & = x \end{aligned}

Peter sells cards in packs of 12 and envelopes in packs of 27. If Martha wants the same number of each, what is the minimum number of cards that she will have to buy?

Answers

The lowest common multiple of 12 and 27 is 108.

12 x 9 = 108  and 
27 x 4 = 108 .

So she has to buy 9 packs of cards ... 108 of them ... and 4 packs of envelopes.


she will need to buy at least three hundred and twenty four cards (324) cards.

Sheila has 10 1/2 pounds of potato salad. She wants to divide the potato salad into containers, each of which holds 2 1/4 pounds. How many containers does she need? Complete the explanation.

Answers

Answer: 5  containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Given that

Total amount of potato salad = 10 1/2

amount of salad in each container = 2 1/4

Total number of containers = ?

Step 2

Divide the total amount of potato salad by the amount of salad each container  can hold  

 Total number of containers=10 1/2 / 2 1/4 = 21/2 x 4/9= 84/18 = 4 3/5

which can also be written as 10.5 / 2.25= 4.6  

Sheila  will need 5 containers because  4 will be filled and  additional 1 will be partially filled.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (3,4) and (−4,−3)? Put your answer in fully reduced form

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line
  • b is the y-intercept

The rule of the slope of the line is m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) , where

  • (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line

∵ The line passes through points (3, 4) and (-4, -3)

∴ x1 = 3 and y1 = 4

∴ x2 = -4 and y = -3

→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope above to find it

∵ m = (-3-4)/(-4-3) = (-7)/(-7) = 1

m = 1

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation above

∴ y = 1(x) + b

y = x + b

→ To find b substitute x by 3 and y by 4 in the equation

∵ 4 = 3 + b

→ Subtract 3 from both sides

∵ 4 - 3 = 3 - 3 + b

1 = b

→ Substitute it in the equation

y = x + 1

The equation of the line is y = x + 1

What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x=70

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are supplementary angles (180°)

45° + (2x-5)° = 180°

(2x-5)° = 180° - 45°

(2x-5)° = 135°

2x° = 135° + 5°

2x° = 140°

x° = 140/2°

x° = 70°

Since they are supplementary angles (180°)

45° + (2x-5)° = 180°

(2x-5)° = 180° - 45°

(2x-5)° = 135°

2x° = 135° - 5°

2x° = 130°

x° = 130/2°

x° = 65°
