Find the missing side of this right

Mathematics
1 answer:
lidiya [134]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume the '17' is the hypotenuse ( the Q does not say)

then    15^2  + x^2 = 17^2   via the pythag theorem for right triangles

           x = 8

PLEASE HELP ASAP 30 POINTS ):
ladessa [460]

Answer:

c (0,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x+y = -4

4x - 4y =16

Solve the first equation for y since we are using substitution.

-5x+y = -4

Add 5x to each side

-5x+5x+y = -4+5x

y = 5x-4

Substitute this equation y = 5x-4 into the second equation.

4x -4(5x-4) = 16

Distribute the -4

4x - 4(5x) -4(-4) = 16

4x-20x +16 = 16

Combine like terms

-16x +16 =16

Subtract 16 from each side

-16x+16-16 = 16-16

-16x =0

Divide by -16

x=0


But we still need to find y

y = 5x-4

y = 5(0) -4

y = -4

The moon is a sphere with radius of 959 km. Determine an equation for the ellipse if the distance of the satellite from the surf
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

\frac{x^2}{1316^2}+\frac{y^2}{1669^2}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

An ellipse is the locus of a point such that its distances from two fixed points, called foci, have a sum that is equal to a positive constant.

The equation of an ellipse with a center at the origin and the x axis as the minor axis is given by:

\frac{x^2}{b^2}+\frac{y^2}{a^2} =1 \\\\where\ a>b

Since the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 357 km to 710 km, hence:

b = 357 km + 959 km = 1316 km

a = 710 km + 959 km = 1669 km

Therefore the equation of the ellipse is:

\frac{x^2}{1316^2}+\frac{y^2}{1669^2}=1
