Find the length of the missing side. The triangle is not drawn to scale.

Mathematics
1 answer:
suter [353]2 years ago

Answer:

D.) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Pythagorean theorem because this is a right triangle:

a^2+b^2=c^2

a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle (since it  is opposite the biggest angle). The two legs squared have to add up to the hypotenuse squared.

Fill in values:

a^2+15^2=17^2

Simplify exponents:

a^2+225=289

Isolate the variable. Subtract 225 from both sides:

a^2+225-225=289-225\\a^2=64

Find the square root of both sides:

\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{64}\\  a=8

The missing leg length is 8.

What are the zeros of the function y = x2 + 10x – 171, and why?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
Y = x^2 + 10x - 171
y = (x - 9)(x + 19)

x - 9= 0 x + 19 = 0
x = 9 x = -19

Answer B covers all requirements... the factored form is
<span>y= (x + 19)(x - 9) </span>
<span>and the zeros are -19 and 9</span>

EM Company produces two types of laptop computer bags. The regular version requires $32 in capital and 4 hours of labor and sell
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that EM company produces two types of laptop computer bags.

Let regular version produced be R and deluxe version be D

Total capital required

= 32R+38D\leq 2100

Total labor hours required

=4R+6D\leq 280

Sales revenue = 46R+55D

Solving the two constraints we have

10D \leq 140

D can be atmost 14 and hence R can be 49

Otherwise if D is made 0, R = 65 maximum

If R is made 0, D maximum is 46

Thus corner points are (65,0) (0.,46) or (49,14)

Sales revenue for (65,0) = 2990

(0,46) is 2530

(49,14) is 3024

Maximum when R =14 and D is 49
