The Pythagorean theorem is the idea that the sum of the two legs which are both squared is equal to the hypotenuse's length squared.
*<em>look at the image I attached for a better explanation</em>
By looking at the picture, we are missing the leg's length, and by using the Pythagorean theorem, we get the equation

Thus the <u>missing side length is 13.2 cm</u>
Hope that helps!
Answer:
r=8
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for slope is
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
Substitute in what we know.
8/3 = (-7-1)/(5-r)
Simplify
8/3 = -8/(5-r)
We can use cross products to help us solve.
8 * (5-r) = 3 * (-8)
divide each side by 8
8/8 * (5-r) = 3 * (-8)/8
5-r = -3
Subtract 5 from each side
5-r-5 = -3-5
-r = -8
Multiply by -1
r = 8
I'm assuming the limit is supposed to be

Multiply the numerator by its conjugate, and do the same with the denominator:

so that in the limit, we have

Factorize the first term in the denominator as

The
terms cancel, leaving you with

and the limand is continuous at
, so we can substitute it to find the limit has a value of -1/18.
Assuming annual compounding, then:
FV=15000*(1+.035)^15
FV=15000*1.6753488307521611831782355996538
FV=$25130.23
At the end of 15 years, Tom should have $25130.23 in his account.
