(answer + 10 )

rhonda and matt are pushing a crate across the floor of a warehouse. rhonda applies a force of 297 newtons (n), while matt applies a force of 394 n in a direction that is perpendicular to rhonda's. the sum of these forces corresponds to the length of the hypotenuse of a triangle in the force diagram, as shown in the figure. what is the approximate total force, f?

a. 97 newtons

b. 259 newtons

c. 493 newtons

d. 691 newtons

C. 493 newtons

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given picture, we have a right triangle in which the side opposite to the right angle is F (Hypotenuse of the right angle).

The other two sides are of 297 N and 394 N.

We know that Pythagoras theorem says that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Now by Pythagoras theorem we have,

Hence, the approximate total force, F = 493 N.

b

step-by-step explanation:

a difference is the result of subtraction. while each of these expressions has subtraction in it, a difference will be the result when subtraction is the last operation applied in the order of operations for the expression. this means subtraction must be outside of the parenthesis. only b has this.

the answer is 11.2 (i know i’m late)
