Answer:

Length of the line segment RS is, 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points are drawn on a ruler. Point R is located at 8 cm and Point S is located at 26 cm.

So, length of the line segment RS is,

(26 - 8) cm\

= 18 cm

We know that on a ruler if two points A and B are at a cm and b cm respectively, then, length of AB

= AB = $\mid b - a \mid$ cm .

Answer:

Dilations produce similar figures because the image and pre-image will have congruent corresponding angles. The corresponding side lengths of the figures will be proportional based on the scale factor. The shape is preserved and the sides are enlarged or reduced by the scale factor

A weather station in a major city in the Northwest kept data about the weather conditions over the past year. The probabilities

Black_prince [1.1K]

It is important to note that all the information's required are already given in the question

Probability that a day will be hot = 0.15 + 0.10
= 0.25
Probability that a day will be sunny = 0.15 + 0.30 + 0.10
= 0.55
Adding the above two probabilities, we get = 0.25 + 0.55
= 0.80
Now
Probability that a day will be both hot and sunny = 0.15
So
Probability that a day was hot or sunny = 0.80 - 0.15
= 0.65
I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

Isabella Is building a tree fort .The base of the fort is 78 inches wide by 92 inches long. What is the area of the base in squa

Maslowich

Answer:

Part a) The area of the base is $7,176\ in^{2}$

Part b) The area of the base is $49\frac{5}{6}\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

Part a)

we have

$L=92\ in$

$W=78\ in$

substitute

$A=92*78=7,176\ in^{2}$

Part b)

we know that

$1\ ft=12\ in$

Convert inches to feet

$92\ in=92/12\ ft$

$78\ in=78/12=6.5\ ft$

substitute in the formula

$A=(92/12)*6.5=(598/12)\ ft^{2}$

Convert to mixed number

$(598/12)\ ft^{2}=(588/12)+(10/12)=49+(5/6)=49\frac{5}{6}\ ft^{2}$

Frankie wants to build a path from one corner of his yard to the opposite corner. His yard measures 20 ft. x 32 ft. What will be

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Frankie's yard is a rectangle with the longer side = 32ft and the shorter side = 20ft. You want to find the length of the diagonal going through the rectangle. In essence, you basically have a triangle with two sides, one 32ft, the other 20ft, and you're looking for the hypotenuse.

Let's call a=32, b=20, and you're looking for the hypotenuse c. Use the Pythagorean theorem:
${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}$
Plug the numbers in to find c, the length of your path! So
$\sqrt{{32}^{2} + {20}^{2}} = 37.7$
