Answer:

BC ≈ 10.4 mm(1 decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question forms a right angle triangle. The angle BAC = 90°. The side AB = 7.3 mm and the side CA = 7.4 mm. The length of BC can be solved below.

AC = opposite side = 7.4 mm

AB = adjacent side = 7.3 mm

BC = hypotenuse = ?

Using pythagoras theorem we can find the longest side which is the hypotenuse

c² = a² + b²(pythagoras formular)

where

c = hypotenuse side

BC² = 7.4² + 7.3²

BC² = 54.76 + 53.29

BC² = 108.05

square root both sides

BC = √108.05

BC = 10.3947101931

BC ≈ 10.4 mm(1 decimal place)

Which of the following is true?
Ratling [72]

In this question, we're trying to find the inequality that is true.

To find your answer, we can convert the numbers in the absolute value:

|−5| < 4:

5 < 4 <em>false</em>

|−4| < |−5|:

4 < 5 <em>true </em>

|−5| < |4|

5 < 4 <em>false</em>

|−4| < −5

4 < -5 <em>false</em>

The only true inequality here would be |−4| < |−5|, since it works with the inequality sign.

Answer:

|−4| < |−5|

How many solutions does the following equation have?
IrinaK [193]
Answer:
Exactly one solution

Explanation:
The first step we need to take to find the answer is to find the value of y.

7(y+3)=5y+8
Expand the parentheses
7y+21=5y+8
Subtract both sides by 21
7y+21-21=5y+8-21
7y=5y-13
Subtract both sides by 5y
7y-5y=5y-13-5y
2y=-13
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2=-13/2
y=-6.5

Now, we plug y back into the original equation.

7(y+3)=5y+8
7(-6.5+3)=5(-6.5)+8
Expand the parentheses
-45.5+21=-32.5+8
-24.5=-24.5

Because both sides of the equation is equal and the equation is true, we can conclude that the equation has one solution.

I hope this helps!
