If the perimeter of a square is 20, what is the length of the diagonal ?

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if you know that the perimeter is 20,

then you have to divide by 4 to get the length of one side

20/4=5.

Draw the diagonal and write in it's length as x.

Use Pythagorean formula

Then know that a2+b2=c2

and use the two side lengths as a and b.

This gives you the equation

5^2+5^2=x^2.

Do the calculations and solve the equation.

25+25=x^2

50=x^2

√50=x.

Therefore x=√50 where x equals the length of the diagonal.

Bytecoin is a new cryptocurrency that is currently valued at $243 per coin. You want to make an investment and purchase 1 Byteco
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth rate of the coin is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

y = ab^x

y = b(1 + r)^ t

Where

y represents the value of the coin after x months.

x represents the number of months.

a represents the initial value of the coin.

b represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

a = 243

b = 1 + 15/100 = 1 + 0.15 = 1.15

Therefore, the exponential expression to determine the number of months, x it will take for the coin to attain a certain value, y is expressed as

y = 243(1.15)^x

If y = 1000, it means that

1000 = 243(1.15)^x

1000/243 = 1.15^x

4.115 = 1.15^x

Taking log of both sides, it becomes

log 4.115 = xlog1.15

0.614 = 0.061x

x = 0.614/0.061

x = 10 months

It will take 10 months

What is an equation of the line that is parallel to y=3x-8 and passes through point (4,-5)?
kompoz [17]
The equation of the line that is // to the given equation MUST HAVE THE SAME SLOPE.

The slope of the hiven equation is the number next to x or 3.

See it?

We know the slope is 3 and one point is given.

We now use the point-slope formula to find the equation.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

See picture. The answer is y = 3x - 7.

If two measurements are very close to each other, then they are ____..
erik [133]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


B) precise


Explanation:


Precision can be broken down into two pieces:

<em>Repeatability </em>- The variation observed when the same person measures the same thing repeatedly with the same device.

<em>Reproducibility</em>: The variation observed when different people measure the same thing using the same device.


If two measurements are very close to each other, this gives repeatability. If the measurements were made by different people, this gives reproducibility.


<em>Accuracy</em>, however, describes the difference between the measurement and the thing's actual value. This would not involve getting the same result repeatedly; it would be getting the <em>correct</em> value.
