You find the answer through the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 a & b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
a = 40
b = ?
c = 41

40^2 + b^2 = 41^2
1600 + b^2 = 1681
b^2 = 1681 - 1600
b^2 = 81
b = 9

the length of the other leg is 9

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

23.- According to the picture I can conclude that is an isosceles triangle,

then, 45° = 2 so

45° = x + 60

x = 45 - 60

x = -15

24.- This is also an isosceles triangle, then, 2 = 74

3x - 4 = 32 2x 74 = 148

3x = 32 + 4 180 - 148 = 32 = 3x - 4

3x = 36

x = 12

25.- This is an equilateral triangle, then,

60 = 7x - 10

60 + 10 = 7x

70 = 7x

x = 70/7

x = 10

What are the solutions for x to the equation (x-3)(x+8)=0

hichkok12 [17]

For this case we have a factored expression, of a second degree equation:

( $(x-3) (x + 8) = 0$

To find the solutions:

$x-3 = 0$

we add 3 to both sides of the equation:

$x=3$

$x+8=0$

We subtract 8 on both sides of the equation:

$x = -8$

Thus, the solutions of the equation are:

$x_ {1} = 3\\x_ {2} = - 8$

Answer:

$x_ {1} = 3\\x_ {2} = - 8$

There are 4,200 adults in Lakeview. Three-eighths of the adults in Lakeview do not have children. How many adults in Lakeview ha

Inessa [10]

To answer this, you first have to find 3/8 of 4200 by multiplying those two numbers.

$\frac{4200}{1} *\frac{3}{8}$

First, multiply the numerators.

4200x3=12600

Next, multiply the denominators.

1x8=8

You end up with $\frac{12600}{8}$ .

This fraction can be simplified to 1575.

All that's left is to subtract that number from 4200.

4200-1575=2625

The final answer is 2625 adults in Lakeview have children.

Can anyone help me with this?

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Constant of proportionality is $r = \frac{10}{3}$

Equation is $c = \frac{10}{3}g$

================================================

Explanation:

The general equation they give is c = rg

Solving for r leads to $r = \frac{c}{g}$ . We divided both sides by g to get this.

Now pick any point on the diagonal line. I'll pick (3,10)

The graph shows the horizontal axis is g and the vertical axis is c. The point (3,10) means g = 3 and c = 10 pair up together.

Making r to be,

$r = \frac{c}{g} = \frac{10}{3}$

and the equation in the form c = rg would be

$c = \frac{10}{3}g$
