Which of these sets of side lengths are Pythagorean triples? Check all that apply.

2 answers:

7 0

Some primitive triples are ...
(3, 4, 5)
(5, 12, 13)
(7, 24, 25)
(9, 40, 41)
One interesting characteristic of these is that the sum of the last two numbers is the square of the first number.

Any multiple of these will be a Pythagorean triple.

Now consider your list.
a) (10, 24, 26) = 2×(5, 12, 13) . . . IS a Pythagorean Triple
b) 2×(7, 24, 25) = (14, 48, 50), so (14, 48, 49) is NOT a Pythagorean Triple
c) 3×(3, 4, 5) = (9, 12, 15), so (9, 12, 16) is NOT a Pythagorean Triple
d) (9, 40, 41) . . . IS a Pythagorean Triple
e) 5×(3, 4, 5) = (15, 20, 25) . . . IS a Pythagorean Triple

The sets of side lengths that are Pythagorean Triples are ...
(10, 24, 26)
(9, 40, 41)
(15, 20, 25)

I believe the answer is C. If you were to plug in 1 for t, you would get h=22. Thus, the max height is 22 feet, and the time it took to get there was 1 second.

Show all work to solve by factoring 3x^2 − x − 2 = 0.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

The solutions are x=1 and x=-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$3x^{2}-x-2=0$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$3x^{2}-x=2$

Factor the leading coefficient

$3(x^{2}-(1/3)x)=2$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$3(x^{2}-(1/3)x+(1/36))=2+(1/12)$

$3(x^{2}-(1/3)x+(1/36))=25/12$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$3(x-(1/6))^{2}=25/12$

$(x-(1/6))^{2}=25/36$

square root both sides

$(x-(1/6))=(+/-)(5/6)$

$x=(1/6)(+/-)(5/6)$

$x=(1/6)(+)(5/6)=1$

$x=(1/6)(-)(5/6)=-2/3$

Find the number if 5/6 of it is 55.

kow [346]

Answer:

The unknown number is 66.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that we need to find the number that is 55 when calculated as 5/6 or the whole number. First, we must divide 55 by 5.

55 ÷ 5 = 11

This means that 1/6 of the unknown number is 11.

Now, let's multiply 11 by 6.

11 x 6 = 66

Therefore, the unknown number is 66.

Hope this helps! :)

Please can someone express √5 as a fraction?

VashaNatasha [74]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>SInce this continued fraction does not terminate, we can tell that √5 cannot be represented as a terminating fraction - i.e. a rational number. So √5 is an irrational number a little smaller than 214=94 . For better rational approximations you can terminate the continued fraction after more terms.</em>

hope this help!
