⓵ The pythagorean theorem is calculated by using this formula : a² + b² = c²

“a” is the length of one of the legs
“b” is the length of the other leg
“c” is the length of the hypotenuse

⓶ Now that you have the formula, replace the letters in the formula with the information that you have :

8² + b² = 10²

⓷ Now that this is done, you need to isolate the “b²” in order to find the length of the other leg of the triangle :

8² + b² = 10²
-8² -8²

↓

b² = 36
√b² √36

↓

b = 6

So the final answer is : the length of the other leg of the triangle is ↠ 6 feet

I really hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻

The graph represents the cost y (in dollars) to open an online gaming account and buy x games. Find the slope and the y-intercep
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Slope = 0.1 or 1/10

Y-int. = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We have points (0,15), (3,45), (6,75), and (9,105).

slope is rise over run, or rise/run.

So, 9-3/105-45=6/60

now, simplify 6/60.

6/60=1/10 or 0.1

We already have the y-intercept, (0,15), because that's what intercepts the y-axis.

Please help and thanks​

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you're solving for Q, the first step is to multiply the first set of parenthesis by 0.10:

0.10(72-Q) = 7.2 - 0.1Q

The next step is to combine the terms that have Q in them:

7.2 - 0.1Q + 0.25Q = 14.7

7.2 + 0.15Q = 14.7

Now isolate 0.15Q:

0.15Q = 14.7 - 7.2

0.15Q = 7.5

Divide 7.5 by 0.15 to solve for Q:

Q = 7.5/0.15 = 50
