A basketball court is shaped like a rectangle. It has a perimeter of 288 feet. The width of the court is 50 feet. What is the le

ngth of the court? Use the following formula to help you decide: Pr = 2l + 2w where Pr is the perimeter of a rectangle, l is the length, and w is the width

We know the perimeter and the length.
The only unknown is the length.
We write the given equation and substitute what we know.
Then we solve for what we are looking for, the length.

Pr = 2L + 2W

288 = 2L + 2(50)

288 = 2L + 100

188 = 2L

94 = L

The length is 94 ft.

using the given formula, fill in the numbers where they belong

perimeter = 288

 width = 50

so Pr = 2l + 2w becomes

288 = 2l +2(50)

288 = 2l +100

subtract 100 from each side

188 =2l

 divide both sides by 2

 l = 188 /2

l = 94

 length = 94 feet

The sets of numbers 3, 4, 5 and 8, 15, 17 are Pythagorean triples. Use what you know about the Pythagorean Theorem and explain o
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

When we have 3 numbers, like:

a, b and c.

Such that:

a < b < c.

These numbers are a Pythagorean triplet if the sum of the squares of the two smaller numbers, is equal to the square of the larger number:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

This is equivalent to the Pythagorean Theorem, where the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

Now that we know this, we can check if the given sets are Pythagorean triples.

1)  3, 4, 5

Here we must have that:

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

solving the left side we get:

3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25

and the right side:

5^2 = 25

Then we have the same in both sides, this means that these are Pythagorean triples.

2) 8, 15, 17

We must have that:

8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2

Solving the left side we have:

8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289

And in the right side we have:

17^2 = 17*17 = 289

So again, we have the same result in both sides, which means that these numbers are Pythagorean triples

Answer:

This table is a guess-and-check, which means that you input whatever number you think might work in this situation in “city gallons”

Step-by-step explanation:

After you just input that same number to wherever the “6” was in the first row...

E.g., if you put “7” for the next “city gallons”, then you’d put “10 - 7 = 3” in “freeway gal” and so on with ever different number you put in for “city gallons”.

That last part in the way bottom goes the same way! Except you input ”c” instead of a number, which is how you find the actual correct answer.

Hope this helps :)
