Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse h is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

h² = 12² + 16² = 144 + 256 = 400 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = $\sqrt{400}$ = 20

A piece of fabric is 2 yards long Marcus puts one patch at each end of the fabric and at each quarter foot mark how many patches

klio [65]

Conversion.
1 yard = 3 feet

So the fabric has 2 yards. Then the size of the patch is 1/4 foot.
So the number of patches that Marcus used is..
= 3 * 2
= 6 / (1/4)
= 24 patches.

So a total of 24 patches Marcus used.

(3x+4)^2=14 what are the solutions?

kherson [118]

$\bf (3x+4)^2=14\implies \sqrt{(3x+4)^2}=\pm\sqrt{14}\implies 3x+4=\pm\sqrt{14}
\\\\\\
3x=\pm \sqrt{14}-4\implies x=\cfrac{\pm \sqrt{14}-4}{3}\implies x=
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{\sqrt{14}-4}{3}\\\\
\cfrac{- \sqrt{14}-4}{3}
\end{cases}$

Atriangle was translated 4 units down.

loris [4]

Answer:

Idk if this is right but I think it's The transformed shaped shifted 7 units to the right so add 7 to x and it shifted 6 units down so subtract 6 from y.

The answer is (x,y) = (x+7) (y-6)

Hope this helps!!!?
