you build a cornhole game. The game is constructed from
a sheet of plywood supported by two boards. The two
boards form a right angle and their lengths are 12 inches
and 46.5 inches.
a. Find the length x of the plywood to the nearest inch.
b. You put in a support that is altitude y to the hypotenuse
of the right triangle. What is the length of the support?
Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
c. Where does the support attach to the plywood? Explain.

Answer:

a) 48 in
B) 2 in
c) given below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given base b = 46.5 in 

Height h = 12 in 

Hypotenuse h = x 

Bhai applying Pythagoras theorem

x² = 12²+46.5²

= 144+2162.25

= 2306.25

x = √2306.25

X = 48.02  inches ~ 48 in 

b. To find the length of the support:

Since the support is altitude (y) to the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle, we have: 

Length =  12× √48/48

Length = 1.732 

= 2 inches.

c. The support would attach to base of the hypotenuse of the plywood, which is the triangle formed by altitude (y) to the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle.

SI=(P*R*T)/100

P=2000

R=1.5

T=6

SI=(2000*1.5*6)/100

=(2000*9)/100

=180

Answer: 440 grams for 1.54 is the better value
Explanation:
Take the price and divide by the number of grams
1.54 / 440 =0.0035 per gram
1.26 / 340 =0.003705882 per gram
0.0035 per gram < 0.003705882 per gram

Speed=Distance/time

Here,

distance=15m

time=1sec

speed=15/1=15m/sec

Distance=Speed*time

time=15min=15*60sec=900sec

Distance travelled in 15 min=15*900=13,500m

=13500/1000 km=13.5Km

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.

Cost before sale tax=$46.00

Cost after including tax=$48.76

Sale tax=$48.76-46.00

=$2.76

we know,

sale tax=((sales tax rate)/100) * cost before sale tax

2.76=((sales tax rate)/100) *46.00

sale tax rate=(2.76*100)/46

                   =276/46

                    =6%

There fore sales tax rate=6%
