Answer: 36 inches (in.)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you need to do is form a right triangle from the starting point to the hole to the corner where the ball is at. Right triangles have a hypotenuse (the longest side), and two legs (the shorter sides).
We are told next to the drawing that it’s 39 feet from the staring point to the hole (given a straight line). This is the length of our hypotenuse. We are also given the length of one of the legs, with it being 36 feet.
We need to find the length of the last leg, the length from the ball to the hole. To do this, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem states that the square of each of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse. The formula for the Pythagorean Theorem is [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex], with [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] being the legs, and [tex]c[/tex] representing the hypotenuse.
Input the given values into the formula and you get the following:
[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]
[tex]36^{2} + x^{2} =39^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{36^{2} } +\sqrt{x^2} =\sqrt{39^2}[/tex]
[tex]36 +x =39[/tex]
[tex]x=3[/tex]
Therefore, the length from the ball to the hole is 3 feet (ft.).
BUT WAIT
The question asks us to provide our answer in inches (in.), and 1 foot equals 12 inches.
Therefore, the distance from the ball to the hole is 36 inches (in.).
58=2u
Solve for u.
I really need help solving this.
Answer: I think its 29?
Step-by-step explanation:
58 = 2u
divide both sides by 2
29 = 1u

Mary works for a company that ships packages and must measure the size of each box that needs to be shipped. Mary measures a box and finds the length is
inches, the width is 14 inches, and the height is 15 inches. What is the volume of the box? [Type your answer as a number.]
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
14-15=1
but if you average it out that is the volume
