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

Brian likes to go bird watching along the Harvest Park Trail in a nearby forest preserve. He wants to calculate the area enclose
QveST [7]

The question has missing details

The m<em>issing options are: </em>

<em>A. 188,000 square yards </em>

<em>B. 138,000 square yards </em>

<em>C. 600 square yards </em>

<em>D. 300 square yards</em>

<em>See attachment 1 for the missing diagram</em>

Answer:

<em>B. 138,000 square yards </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure can be divided into two shapes (see attachment 2)

From attachment 2,

The dimension of the big rectangle is 1300ft by 800ft

The dimension of the small rectangle is 500ft by 400ft

So, the area is:

Area of the big rectangle added to the area of the small rectangle

i.e.

Area = 1300 * 800 + 500 * 400

Area = 1040000 + 200000

Area = 1240000ft^2

Convert to yd^2 by dividing by 9

Area = 1240000yd^2 /9

Area = 137777.777778\ yd^2

<em>From the list of given options, the closest to the area of the diagram is </em>

<em>B. 138,000 square yards  </em>

The variables A, B, and C represent polynomials where A = x + 1, B = x2 + 2x − 1, and C = 2x. What is AB + C in simplest form?
topjm [15]
AB + C
= (x + 1)(x^2 + 2x - 1)  +  2x
= x^3 + 2x^2 - x + x^2 + 2x - 1 + 2x
= x^3  + 3x^2 + 3x - 1

a roller skating rink offers a special rate for birthday parties. On the samr day, a party for 10 skaters cost $107 and a party
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

$119

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of skaters

y -----> the cost for birthday parties

we have the points

(10,107) and (15,137)

step 1

Find the slope of the linear equation

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{137-107}{15-10}

m=\frac{30}{5}=6\ \frac{\$}{skater}

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=6\\point\ (10,107)

substitute

y-107=6(x-10)

step 3

Convert to slope intercept form

y-107=6x-60

y=6x-60+107

y=6x+47

step 4

How much would a party for 12 skaters cost?

For x=12 skaters

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

y=6(12)+47

y=\$119

Blake expressed 36 as these pairs of factors: 1 36, 2 18, 3 12, 4 9, and 6 6. Use these expressions to identify the factors of 3
drek231 [11]

Answer: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor, of a number means the number that can be used to divide another number without having a remainder.

Therefore, the factor of 36 are the numbers that can divide 36 without having a remainder. The numbers include: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36
