Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If you draw a line diagonal from one top corner to the opposite bottom corner you will have made 2 triangles. Then you can use the Pythagorean theorem to figure out the diagonal measure (or hypotenuse of the triangle.c squared=15 squared + 27 squaredc squared= 225+729c squared= 954c= square root of 954c=30.88I would round that up to 31 inches
Answer 2
Answer: B.31 inches, I got this from 30.88 and I rounded.
1st. Draw a line diagonal from one top corner to the opposite bottom corner(you will have 2 triangles)
2nd.Pythagorean theorem to figure out the  hypotenuse of the triangle.
 c^2=15^2 + 27^2 c^2= 225+729 c^2= 954 c= square root of 954 c=30.88, aka 31 inches.

30+10x=70

Answers

x=4

Because when you add 3 and four it equals 7
First you multiply 10 x 4 and get the answer 40
So 30 + 40= 70

Hope this helps!
30 + 10x = 70
10x = 70 - 30
10x = 40
x = 40/10
x = 4
