Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle
where
c is the greater side (the hypotenuse)
a and b are the legs
In this problem
Let
c=AB ---> distance from point A to point B
a ---> the difference of the x-coordinates both points
b ---> the difference of the y-coordinates both points
so
substitute
Let x be a number of skateboards and y be the number of bicycles in Eddie's repair shop.
Eddie asks the girls to order 54 new wheels for 21 skateboards and bicycles, then
x+y=21.
One scateboard has 4 wheels, then x scateboards have 4x wheels, one bicycle has 2 wheels, then y bicycles have 2y wheels. In total there should be ordered 54 wheels, so
4x+2y=54.
Solve the system of equations:
From the first equation Substitute it into the second equation:
Then
Answer: 6 scateboards and 15 bicycles.
Answer:
5.7
Step-by-step explanation:
pythagorean theorem
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
sub in
A^2 + 7^2 = 9^2
simplify
A^2 + 49 = 81
solve
A^2 = 32
solve further
A =
