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

Explain how to solve the equation 2(4x-11) +9=19
xxMikexx [17]
X=4, first you distribute the 2 to both 4x and -11 which leaves you with 8x-22+9=19 next you add -22 with 9 which leaves you -13 the eqation now at 8x-13=19 so now you add 13 to both sides now youre left with 8x=32. Now the last step is to divide 8 on both sides. so that gives you the answer or X=4

Find the Slope:
AveGali [126]

Answer:

4) slope= 0

5) slope =  -  \frac{1}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{2} - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1} }

4) Slope

=  \frac{10 - 10}{ - 10 - 3}

=  \frac{0}{ - 13}

= 0

The slope is zero as the line is a horizontal line (since both points have the same y-coordinate of 10).

5) Slope

=  \frac{5 - 4}{2 - 9}

=  \frac{1}{ - 7}

=  -  \frac{1}{7}

Since you have taken (x₁, y₁) to be (9, 4), the value of x₁ should be 9 instead of 2.

1: a 24 ounce box of cornflakes cost $4.59?
mestny [16]
The unit rate for the 1st one is: $0.19 / ounce

The unit rate for the 2nd one is: $0.16 / ounce

The 36 ounce box would be the better buy because it is less per ounce than the 24 ounce box
