Answer:

#15) B. 41

#16. A. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>#15:</h2>

You are given the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

In problem 15, x is the hypotenuse and 9 and 40 are the legs, so you can substitute these values into the formula and solve for c (x).

  • (9)^2 + (40)^2 = c^2

Evaluate the exponents.

  • 81 + 1600 = c^2

Add the like terms together.

  • 1681 = c^2

Square root both sides of the equation.

  • c = 41

Since c = x, the answer for #15 is b. 41.

<h2>#16:</h2>

x and 8 are the legs and 10 is the hypotenuse, so substitute these values into the formula. Make x = a.

  • a^2 + (8)^2 = (10)^2

Evaluate the exponents.

  • a^2 + 64 = 100

Subtract 64 from both sides of the equation.

  • a^2 = 36

Square root both sides of the equation.

  • a = 6

The answer is A. 6.

15. \:  x =  \sqrt{ {9}^{2} +  {40}^{2}  }  =  \sqrt{81 + 1600}  =  \sqrt{1681}  = 41 \\ 16. \: x =  \sqrt{ {10}^{2} -  {8}^{2}  }  =  \sqrt{100 - 64}  =  \sqrt{36}  = 6

candice is going to replace the top of a table with a new piece of wood. How many square feet of wood would she purchase? 8ft. ,
lukranit [14]

Answer:

She  needs to purchase  50  square feet of wood .

Step-by-step explanation:

we can find the number of square feet of wood needed to purchase by finding the area of the table

The area of the table  =  area of the triangle + area of the rectangle

Area of the triangle:

Area of the triangle  = \frac{1}{2}(base \times height)

On substituting the values from the attached figure , we get

Area of the triangle  = \frac{1}{2}(4\times  5)

Area of the triangle  = \frac{20}{2}

Area of the triangle  = 10 square feet

Area of the rectangle:

Area of the rectangle = Length X  Breadth

On substituting the values from the attached figure , we get

Area of the triangle  = 5 \times  8

Area of the triangle  =  40 square feet

Thus the area of the table  = 10 +  40 = 50  square feet

True or false? f (x) = 2 · (1/5)^x represents an exponential function growth.
nekit [7.7K]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{\text{False.}}

f(x) = 2(1/5)ˣ

Recall the form of an exponential function:

f(x) = a(b)ˣ where:

a = initial value

b = rate of decay/growth

If b > 1, the function is undergoing exponential growth. If b < 1, then the function is undergoing exponential decay.

1/5 < 1, so the function is undergoing exponential decay, not growth.

Write the expression in rational exponent form.
MrRa [10]

Determine the power by looking at the numerator of the exponent.

Determine the root by looking at the denominator of the exponent.

Using the base as the radicand, raise the radicand to the power and use the root as the index.
