Astereo system is being installed in a room with a rectangular floor measuring 19 feet by 12 feet and a 7-foot ceiling. the stereo amplifier is on the floor in one corner of the room. a speaker is at the ceiling in the opposite corner of the room. you must run a wire from the amplifier to the speaker, and the wire must run along the floor or walls (not through the air). what is the shortest length of wire you can use for the connection? (hint: turn the problem into an equivalent simpler problem by imagining cutting the room along its vertical corners and unfolding it so that it is flat. you will be able to apply the pythagorean theorem.)

The shortest length of wire that can be used is 29.47 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can follow the following steps:

1) We have the dimensions of the floor of the room. The shortest distance between its opposite corners is the diagonal. We calculate the diagonal using the Pythagorean theorem.

2) Since the speaker is on the ceiling, and the amplifier is on the floor, then 7 more feet of wire is needed to reach the speaker. Observe the attached image

3) The final distance (d) is:

it happens during combustion and impacts the environment because the plants and trees take in that and it can cause them to die.
