Answer:

A) 41

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hypotenuse be denoted by h

perpendicular as p and base as b

According to the Pythagoras theorem

h²=p²+b²

h =  \sqrt{ {p}^{2} +  {b}^{2}  }

h =   \sqrt{ {(40)}^{2}  +  {(9)}^{2} }

h =  \sqrt{1600 + 81}  =  \sqrt{1681}

h = 41

The ratio of the shortest sides is 12/5. Multiplying the other two sides of the smaller triangle by that ratio gives 15 and 18, so the ratios of all sides are the same. The triangles are similar.

ABC ~ ZYX

The largest/smallest scale factor is 12/5 = 2.4.

I need help and can you explain how you got the answer because I don’t understand how to do this..
Bond [772]

Answer:

9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the area of a triangle is: A = bXh square units.

Therefore simply divide the area given 54 cm over base 6 cm to get the height. 54÷ 6 = 9

Hope this suffices.

Please help:) with my math it’s Quadratic Functions
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Part A: 2531.25; It means the maximum amount of profit that can be obtained at a specific amount of price reduction (x-value) for the shirts' market price.

Part B:  (0,2500); It represents the profit that can be made by reducing $0 in the shirts' price.

Part C: Yes, it has a zero. Its zero is (25,0) and that represents the amount of profit made by reducing $25 from the price of each shirt being sold, which means if it sells for $0 by reducing $25 from the price of each shirt, then the x-coordinate must also represent the original price of each shirt, $25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Look at the graph! The highest y-value should be the maximum of each graph, which can be located at the vertex of a quadratic function. In this graph, the vertex is (2.5, 2531.25), where which its y-value contains the highest point of a graph, since the graph is concave down.  

<u>Part B</u>

y=a(x-2.5)^{2} +2531.25\\

0=a(25-2.5)^{2} +2531.25\\

a(22.5)^{2} =-2531.25

506.25a =2531.25

a=-5

y=-5(x-2.5) ^{2}+2531.25

y=-5(0-2.5)^{2} +2531.25

y=-31.25+2531.25

y=2500

y-intercept: (0,2500)

<u>Part C</u>

The graph only has a zero if the function touches the x-axis, also known as the line, y=0. In this case the graph does intersect the x-axis at the point, (25,0). Therefore, it has a zero, and the value of the x coordinate at the zero is 25. This value represents the profit generated from reducing the price of each shirt by $25, which is $0. Therefore, this also represents the original price of each shirt without any price reduction, since there is no profit made by completely reducing the price of each shirt at that specific point in the graph, which is 25 or $25. Therefore, this displays that.

A leprechaun places a magic penny under a girl's pillow. The next night there are 2 magic pennies under her pillow. The followin
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>32 days</em></u>

Explanation:

Simulate (build a table) the growing of the number of pennies for some nights to figure out the pattern:

First night:          1 penny = 2⁰

Second night:    1 × 2 pennies = 2¹

Third night:        2 × 2 = 2²

Fourth nigth:      2² × 2 = 2³

nth night:           2ⁿ⁻¹

You want 2ⁿ⁻¹ ≥ 2,000,000,000

Which you solve in this way:

  • 2ⁿ⁻¹  ≥ 2,000,000,000

  • 2ⁿ⁻¹ ≥ 2,000,000,000

  • n-1 log (2)  ≥ log (2,000,000,000)

  • n - 1  ≥ log (2,000,000,000) / log (2)

  • n - 1 ≥ 30.9

  • n ≥ 31.9

Since n is number of days, it is an integer number, so n ≥ 32.

Hence, she will have a total of more than $ 2 billion after 32 days.

You can prove that by calculating 2³² = 2,147,483,648.

Determine if its possible to form a triangle using the set of segments with the given measurement. explain please! 7 in., 8.7.,
mafiozo [28]

Start by adding together the shortest two sides, 7 and 8.7 inches.  Result:  15.7 inches.  Because this sum is greater than the longest side, 15.4 inches, it's possible to construct a triangle, whose largest angle will be close to 180 degrees.
