What you are looking for is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
If you have a 12 x 24 rectangle, these would be the sides of the triangle and we would use Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + 24^2 = c^2
144 + 576 = c^2
720 = c^2
take the square root of both sides
c = sqrt(720)
c = 26.8 inches is the approximate answer.
I don't know what your choices are but one should be close to this answer.

A Shampoo Problem: A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.25 of the bottle. How much shampoo is left? a. I
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a) There is no a word problem for both expressions (m = 0.25\cdot 25.4 and m = 25.4-0.25), b) A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.75 of the bottle. How much shampoo is left? A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.25 fluid ounces of the bottle. How much shampoo is left?

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The shampoo problem is a word problem for:

(Final content) = (Initial content) - (Used content)

Then,

m = 25.4 - 0.25\cdot 25.4

Or:

m = 0.75\cdot 25.4

Hence, there is no a word problem for both expressions (m = 0.25\cdot 25.4 and m = 25.4-0.25).

b) The word problem for m = 0.25\cdot 25.4 is:

A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.75 of the bottle. How much shampoo is left?

The word problem for m = 25.4-0.25 is:

A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.25 fluid ounces of the bottle. How much shampoo is left?

Geometry: Line QS bisects angle PQR. Solve for x and find the measure of angle PQR.
Kazeer [188]

It is given in the question that,

Line QS bisects angle PQR. Solve for x and find the measure of angle PQR.

And

m \angle PQS = 2x+1&#10;\\&#10;m \angle RQS = 4x-15

Since QS bisects angle PQR, therefore

m \angle PQS = m \angle RQS

Substituting the values, we will get

2x+1=4x-15&#10;\\&#10;1+15 = 4x-2x&#10;\\&#10;2x = 16&#10;\\&#10;x = 8

A cube has an edge of 2 feet. The edge is increasing at the rate of 5 feet per minute. Express the volume of the cube as a funct
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solid Shape = Cube

Edge = 2 feet

Increment = 5 feet per minute

Required

Determine volume as a function of minute

From the question, we have that the edge of the cube increases in a minute by 5 feet

<em>This implies that,the edge will increase by 5m feet in m minutes;</em>

Hence,

New\ Edge = 2 + 5m

Volume of a cube is calculated as thus;

Volume = Edge^3

Substitute 2 + 5m for Edge

Volume = (2 + 5m)^3

Represent Volume as a function of m

V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3
