A right triangle has a hypotenuse length of 12, and one side length of 9. find the missing side length. do the side lengths form

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

c - a hypotenuse

a, b - legs

We have: a = 9 and c = 12. Substitute:

9^2+b^2=12^2

81+b^2=144               <em>subtract 81 from both sides</em>

b^2=63\to b=\sqrt{63}\\\\b=\sqrt{9\cdot7}\\\\b=\sqrt9\cdot\sqrt7\\\\ \boxed{b=3\sqrt{7}}

A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a, b and c, such that

a^2+b^2=c^2.

b=3\sqrt{7} is not positive integer.

<h3>The sides of the triangle do not form a pythagorean triple.</h3>

How is the graph of the parent function y=x² transformed to produce the graph of y=3(x+1)²?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Always the easiest way to study these questions is to get a graph. The one below shows

Red: y = x^2

Blue: y= 3(x + 1)^2

You will notice that (x+1)^2 shifts the graph Left -- the opposite to what you might think.

The 3 is a little harder. It narrows the red mother graph. Which choice says that?

The choice is between b and d. Why. Because the blue graph is to the left of the red one.

You have to learn the meaning of compressed. A better word might be narrows.

A company is allowed to interview candidates until two qualified candidates are found. But budget constraints dictate that no mo
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Kindly check attached picture for sample space design

45 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of qualified candidates to be chosen = 2

Number of candidates to be interviewed = 10

Combination formula :

nCr = n! / (n-r)! r!

10C2 = 10! ÷ (10 - 2)!2!

10C2 = 10*9 / 2 * 1

10C2 = 90/2

10C2 = 45 different samples

Our sample space will contain 45 different samples

Which represents the solution(s) of the graphed system of equations, y = x2 – 2x and y = –2x – 1? (1, –1) (0, 0) and (0, –1) (0,
olganol [36]

ANSWER

No solution

EXPLANATION

The first equation is

y =  {x}^{2}  - 2x

and the second equation is

y =  - 2x  - 1

We equate the two equations to obtain;

{x}^{2}  - 2x =  - 2x - 1

This implies that

{x}^{2}  =  - 2x + 2x - 1

{x}^{2}  =  - 1

There is no real number whose square is -1.

Therefore, the equation has no solution.

What is the x-intercept of the graph of 2x-4y=7
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

To find the x-intercept you need to plug in 0 for the y value and solve for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 4y = 7

if y = 0

2x - 4(0) = 7

Now solve to find the value of x.
