Amy has a rectangular garden that is 23 feet wide. If the length of the garden is 12 feet, what is the length of its diagonal, in feet? Round to the nearest tenth​

25.9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If you split a rectangle into 2 pieces with a diagonal, each piece will be a right triangle

Therefore we can use the pythagorean theorem to solve this problem

The two legs of the right triangle will be 23 and 12

The formula is a^2 +b^2=c^2

c^2 is the diagonal squared ( the hypotenuse)

So:

12^2+23^2=c^2

144+529=c^2

673=c^2

To find just c we need to find the square root of 673, rounded to the nearest tenth

(the equation is rounded)

So the diagonal is 25.9

region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true ⇒ answer a

step-by-step explanation:

* lets study the graph and the inequality to solve the question

- the inequality y > -x - 2

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

  and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = -2 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , -2)

∵ the sign of the inequality is >

∴ we shad the part over the line

  region a and b

- the inequality y < 2x + 1

∵ the form of the inequality is y > mx + c , m is the slope of the line

  and c is the y-intercept (the line intersect y-axis at point (0 , c)

∴ c = 1 that means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 1)

∵ the sign of the inequality is <

∴ we shad the part under the line

  region b and c

∵ the common region between the two lines is region b

∴ region b will make the inequalities y < 2x + 1 and y > -x - 2 true
