Answer:

A. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theorem which states that: <u>Hypotenus² = Opposite² + Adjacent²</u>

Where: hypotenus = 10, opposite = x, adjacent = 8

So:

{10}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {8}^{2}

Solving for x

100 =  {x}^{2}  + 64

Collect like terms to make x the subject of formula

100 - 64 =  {x}^{2} →36 =  {x}^{2}

36 =  {x}^{2} ⟹ {x}^{2}  = 36

square root both sides of the equation to find the value of x

\sqrt{ {x}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{36} →x = 6

Therefore: Option A is correct

Can you help me with a question? What is the equation of the blue line?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

y = -x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

<u>slope (m):</u> Since the line is going downhill, the slope will be negative

slope = rise / run

slope = 1 / 1

slope = 1

m = -1

<u>y - intercept (b):</u> this when x = 0, the line is crossing the vertical line (y-axis)

b = -1

so y = mx + b is

b = -1, m = -1

y = (-1)x + (-1)

Does this graph show a function? Explain how you know.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

No, the graph fails the vertical line test

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the graph is a function, we can use the vertical line test.

Use a vertical line, if the vertical passes through two or more points, the graph is not a function

Looking at the y axis ( which is a vertical line), it passes through two points

This means the graph is not a function

No, the graph fails the vertical line test

basically 2b^2 + 16b + 49/2 b + 4 
= (2b^2) + 16b+49/2b) + (4) 
= 2b^2 + 81/2 b + 4
