Answer:

5/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hypotenuse = h , then:

h^2 = (3/7)^2 +(4/7)^2    ( By the Pythagoras Theorem).

h^2 = 9/49 + 16/49

h^2 = 25/49

h =  5/7.

Answer:

5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

We need the Pythagorean Theorem here.

If you have a right triangle, you can use the equation a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse.

Plug in your information.

(3/7)^2+(4/7)^2=c^2

Simplify what you can.

9/49+16/49=c^2

25/49=c^2

Square root both sides.

5/7=c

A family of four went to a theme park and spent the total of $480 on tickets, food, and souvenir. 1/6 of their money was spent f
Shalnov [3]

Answer: the price of one ticket is $70.

Step-by-step explanation:

The family of four went to a theme park and spent the total of $480 on tickets, food, and souvenir.

1/6 of their money was spent for souvenirs . It means that the amount of money that was spent on souvenirs is

1/6 × 480 = $80

1/4 of their money was spent for food. It means that the amount of money that was spent on food is

1/4 × 480 = $120

Total amount spent on souvenirs and food is

120 + 80 = $200

Total amount spent on tickets is

480 - 200 = $280

Since they are 4, the price of one ticket would be

280/4 = $70

What are the solutions of the quadratic equation <br> X2+11x=-28
Slav-nsk [51]
X² <span>+ 11x = -28
to find the solution of this polynomial, it'll be easiest to try and factor it. the first thing you need to do is move everything to one side:

</span>x² + 11x = -28 ... add 28
x² + 11x + 28 = 0 ... factor
(x + 7)(x + 4) = 0 ... now set both of your factors equal to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0
x = -7

x + 4 = 0
x = -4
