Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the height of the building is: 24.9 m.

<h3>How to Apply the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

Where c is the length of the hypothenuse of a right triangle, and a and b are the legs of the right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem states that:

c = √(a² + b²).

The diagram of the building and its shadow form a right triangle as shown in the image below, where:

a = height of the building

b = 26

c = 36

Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we will have:

a = √(36² - 26²)

a = √(36² - 26²)

a = 24.9 m

Which situation can be modeled by the equation y=3x+25
Gnesinka [82]

For this case we have the following situation:

The monthly cost of a gym in the city is $ 3. The initial registration is $ 25. Write a mathematical expression that models the problem.

So we have to define variables:

x: number of months

y: total cost

The mathematical expression that models the problem is:

y = 3x + 25

Resuelve las siguientes ecuaciones: -x^2 - x =0 -X^2 + 12x = 0 3X^2 - 9x = 0 X^2 - 2x - 3 = 0
vaieri [72.5K]

Responder:

<em>a) 1 </em>

<em>b) 12 </em>

<em>c) 3 </em>

<em>d) -1 y 3 </em>

Explicación paso a paso:

Dadas las siguientes ecuaciones;

a) x²-x =0

x² = 0+x

x² = x

x = 1

b) -x²+12x = 0

-x² = -12x

x² = 12x

x = 12

c) 3x² - 9x = 0

Suma 9x a ambos lados

3x²-9x+9x = 0+9x

3x² = 9x

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3

d) x²-2x-3 = 0

x²-3x+x-3 = 0

x(x-3)+1(x-3) = 0

(x+1)(x-3) = 0

x+1 = 0 y x-3 = 0

x = -1 y 3
