- [Right Triangles Only]: Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
We are given a right triangle. We can use PT to solve for the missing length.
<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>
Leg <em>a</em> = 8
Leg <em>b</em> = 8
Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = <em>x</em>
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute [PT]: 8² + 8² = x²
- Exponents: 64 + 64 = x²
- Add: 128 = x²
- Isolate <em>x</em>: 8√2 = x
- Rewrite: x = 8√2
the answer is none of the above because the variable cant be combined and 56 cant either.
Answer:
<u>Part 1:</u>
For Platinum Gym:
90 + 30x
For Super Fit Gym:
200 + 20x
<u>Part 2:</u> $270
<u>Part 3:</u> $320
<u>Part 4:</u> 11 months
<u>Part 5:</u> See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part 1:</u>
Let "x" be the number of months:
For Platinum Gym:
90 + 30x
For Super Fit Gym:
200 + 20x
<u>Part 2:</u>
We put x = 6 in platinum gym's equation and get our answer.
90 + 30x
90 + 30(6)
90 + 180
=$270
<u>Part 3:</u>
We put x = 6 into super fit's equation and get our answer.
200 + 20x
200 + 20(6)
200 + 120
=$320
<u>Part 4:</u>
To find the number of months for both gyms to cost same, we need to equate both equations and solve for x:
90 + 30x = 200 + 20x
10x = 110
x = 11
So 11 months
<u>Part 5:</u>
We know for 11 months, they will cost same. Let's check for 10 months and 12 months.
In 10 months:
Platinum = 90 + 30(10) = 390
Super Fit = 200 + 20(10) = 400
In 12 months:
Platinum = 90 + 30(12) = 450
Super Fit = 200 + 20(12) = 440
Thus, we can see that Platinum Gym is a better deal if you want to get membership for months less than 11 and Super Fit is a better deal if you want to get membership for months greater than 11.
If you list all the common factors, (1,2,3,6), you see the highest common factor is 6
