There are 3 right triangles.
Long leg short leg hypotenuse
Large ? ? 32+18 = 50 m
Medium 32 m x ?
Small x 18 m ?

Similar triangles: small & medium

short leg / long leg
x/32 = 18/x
x*x = 18 * 32
x² = 576
√x² = √576
x = 24

Long leg short leg hypotenuse
Large ? → 40 m ? 32+18 = 50 m
Medium 32 m 24 m ? → 40 m
Small 24 m 18 m ? → 30 m

solve hypotenuse of medium and small using Pythagorean theorem.

32² + 24² = c²
1024 + 576 = c²
1600 = c²
√1600 = √c²
40 = c

24² + 18² = c²
576 + 324 = c²
900 = c²
√900 = √c²
30 = c

Solve for the long leg of the large right triangle using ratio and proportion
medium and large: long leg / hypotenuse

32/40 = x/50
32*50 = 40 * x
1600 = 40x
1600/40 = x
40 = x

A. How far is the spot on the beach from the parking lot? 24 meters

B. How far will he have to walk from the parking lot to get to the refreshment stand? 40 meters

Answer from: Quest

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

−37

−3

An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, μ, of 12 minutes. the standard deviation of completion times is 1.6 minutes. it is claimed that, under new management, the mean completion time has decreased. to test this claim, a random sample of 33 completion times under new management was taken. the sample had a mean of 11.2 minutes. assume that the population is normally distributed. can we support, at the 0.05 level of significance, the claim that the mean completion time has decreased under new management? assume that the standard deviation of completion times has not changed.
