3/8 of a foot = 3/8 x 12/1 or 4 1/2 inches
So our 1/2 inch grows by a factor of 9 because 4 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 9 Think how many 1/2 dollars are in 4 1/2 dollars. (Answer is 9)
So our 8 4/9 in the catalog has to grow the same
8 4/9 x 9 = 8 4/9 x 9/1 = 76/9 x 9/1 or 76 inches which is 6 ft 4 inches.
(76 ÷12 = 6 r4)
First of all, a bit of theory: since the area of a square is given by

where s is the length of the square. So, if we invert this function we have
.
Moreover, the diagonal of a square cuts the square in two isosceles right triangles, whose legs are the sides, so the diagonal is the hypothenuse and it can be found by

So, the diagonal is the side length, multiplied by the square root of 2.
With that being said, your function could be something like this:
double diagonalFromArea(double area) {
double side = Math.sqrt(area);
double diagonal = side * Math.sqrt(2);
return diagonal;
}
ANSWER
<em>alternate interior angles theorem</em>
EXPLANATION
According to the alternate interior angles theorem, when two parallel lines are are intercepted by a straight line (transversal) the angles in the interior corners of a Z-shape pattern are congruent.
From the above diagram line r is parallel to line s, therefore

and

because they are alternate interior angles.
See attachment for how to spot alternate interior angles.
Answer:
He must get 33 hits in his next 46 times at bat to finish the year with a .400 batting average
Step-by-step explanation:
The player has already batted 134 times and will still bat 46 times. So in the end of the year, he is going to have 134 + 46 = 180 at bats.
How many hits does he need to have to hit .400?
This is 40% of 180, which is 0.4*180 = 72.
He has already 39 hits, so in his next 46 at bats, he will need 72 - 39 = 33 hits.
Answer should be:
b. No; it is a reflection followed by a translation.
Hope it helps.
