Identify and Set Up

This question is a test on the understanding of the Pythagorean theorem.

It states that the square of the length of the hypothenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to a sum of the squares of the other sides.

Our approach, given the length of the other sides, is simply to find the square of the hypothenuse which is a sum of the square of the other 2 sides.

Execute

\begin{gathered} h^2=o^2+a^2 \\ \text{ Where:} \\ h=\text{hypothenuse} \\ o=\text{Opposite side} \\ a=\text{Adjacent side} \end{gathered}

This gives us:

a.

h^2=17^2+26^2=965\operatorname{cm}^2

Area of square with length as hypotenuse = 965 sq cm

b.

h^2=7^2+15^2=274\operatorname{cm}

Area of square with length as hypotenuse = 274 sq cm

Two-thirds a number plus 4 is 7
ICE Princess25 [194]

The equation (form) is: \frac{2}{3}x + 4 = 7

The solution of the equation is: x = \frac{9}{2}


Explanation:

First, let's call the number we are going to solve for "x".

Then two thirds of this number can be written as:

\frac{2}{3}x

Then "plus 4" means add 4 we get:

\frac{2}{3}x + 4

"is 7" means that the above expression is equal to 7 (as follows):

\frac{2}{3}x + 4 = 7

The solution of the above equation is:

\frac{2}{3}x + 4 = 7 \\ \frac{2}{3}x = 3 \\ x =  \frac{9}{2}

What is the sign of f on the interval -2
TEA [102]

Answer:

f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(x-3)(x+2)(x+4)(x+4)(x-1)(2x-9)

Take x=-1\in(-2,\frac{9}{2})\ as-2

f(-1)=(-1-3)(-1+2)(-1+4)(-1-1)(-2-9)\\\\=(-4)(1)(3)(-2)(-11)\\\\=-264\\\\f(-1)

Take x=2\in(-2,\frac{9}{2})\ as\ -2

f(2)=(2,-3)(2+2)(2+4)(2-1)(2\times2-9)\\\\=(-1)(4)(6)(1)(-5)\\\\=120\\\\f(2)>0

Hence f(x) for x=-1 and f(x)>0 for x=2

So f is sometimes positive and sometimes negative in the interval.

A rectangular pyramid has a volume of 90 cubic feet. What is the volume of a rectangular prism with the same size base and same
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

30 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given the volume of rectangular pyramid as 90 cubic feet as we are required to find the volume of rectangular prism.

For that we need to use the theorem which says that

the volume prism is always one third of the volume of the pyramid . Whether it is rectangular of triangular base. Hence in this case also the volume of the rectangular prism will be one third of the volume of the rectangular pyramid.

Volume of Rectangular prism = \frac{1}{3} * Volume of rectangular pyramid

=  \frac{1}{3} * 90

= 30

By what percent will the fraction increase if its numerator is increased by 60% and denominator is decreased by 20% ?
seropon [69]

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x.

x = x/1

Increase the numerator by 60% to 1.6x.

Decrease the numerator by 20% to 0.8.

The new fraction is

1.6x/0.8

Do the division.

1.6x/0.8 = 2x

The fraction increased from x to 2x. It became double of what it was. From x to 2x, the increase is x. Since x was the original number x is 100%.

The increase is 100%.
