Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem is as follows:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

A and B represent the side lengths (legs) and C represents the hypotenuse.

The length of one leg equals 5cm. (This can be represented by either a or b)

The hypotenuse equals 13 cm.

Plug these into the equation from above:

a^{2} + (5^{2}) = (13^{2})

Solve for the other leg:

   a^{2} + 25 = 169                          Square what's in the parentheses from above

a^{2} = 144\\                                  Subtract 25 from 169

\sqrt{a^{2} } = \sqrt{144}                            Square root both sides

a = 12 cm                        

Thus, the length of the other leg is 12 cm.

Let's check our answer:

12^{2} +5^{2} =13^{2}                        Square everything

144 + 25 = 169                      Add

169 = 169

Because both sides are equal it means that 12 cm is the correct answer.

Hope this helps!!

Question 101 points)
maw [93]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{13}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:}\\\\y=mx+b\\\\m-slope\\b-y-intercept\\\\\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\===============================

\text{We have the point:}\\\\(5,\ 1)\ \text{and}\ (-4,\ 7).\ \text{Substitute:}\\\\m=\dfrac{7-1}{-4-5}=\dfrac{6}{-9}=-\dfrac{6:3}{9:3}=-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\text{We have the equation in form:}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+b\\\\\text{Put the coordinates of the point (5, 1) to the equation:}\\\\1=-\dfrac{2}{3}(5)+b\\\\1=-\dfrac{10}{3}+b\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{10}{3}\ \text{to the both sides}\\\\\dfrac{3}{3}+\dfrac{10}{3}=b\to b=\dfrac{13}{3}\\\\\text{Finally:}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{13}{3}

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

p(t) = 0 for t = 1

p(t) = 1 for t = 1/8 = 8^-1

Step-by-step explanation:

the graph you will have to do yourself.

just go there and type in

-  log_{8}(x)

well, don't type "log" in letters.

you start by typing the "-" sign, and then you need to look up the functions by clicking on the "funcs" button and look for the log functions .

pick the

log_{a}

option. and then simply enter 8 as the first parameter in the {} brackets and x as the second in the () brackets.

and then you see.

any logarithm is 0 for x (or t) = 1.

because any a⁰ = 1.

and the logarithm gives you that exponent of the base number that leads to the given x value.

in other words : a logarithm is the inverse function of an exponential function.

the exponential function is

y = a^x

and the logarithm then determines

x =  log_{a}(y)

that is all.

and

-  log_{8}(x)  = 1

means that the logarithm itself delivered -1.

and 8^-1 = 1/8

so, p(t) = 1 for t = 1/8
