Answer:

The careers that use Pythagoras theorem are mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of squares of the two sides of right angled triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

Let a, b and c be the sides of a right triangle where c is the length of the hypotenuse.Then

$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$

Pythagoras theorem is used in daily life situations.

A surveyor looks through a telescope toward a measuring stick a fixed distance away, so that the telescope's line of sight and the measuring stick form a right angle.

It is also used to calculate the steepness of slopes and mountains.

Select all of the following expressions that are equivalent to 0.25.

lora16 [44]

1. (0.5)2=1

2. (-0.2) + (-0.05) = -0.25

3. |-3 + 2.75| = 0.25

4. -(-0.25) = 0.25

5. 2x - 1.75x = 0.25x

So your answers are 3 and 4.

Tom sells baseball cards at 10 for 35 cents. Is that a better deal than 12 for 40 cents?

AVprozaik [17]

For either one of the deals, just find what one card equals and times it by how many cards the other equation has.

e.g. 0.35 cents divide by 10 = 0.035. And now, you times it by 12 since the other deal is 12 cards for 40 cents.

0.035 x 12 = 0.48

So, 10 cards for 35 cents is not the better deal.

An electronics company produces transistors, resistors, and computer chips. Each transistor requires 3 units of copper, 1 unit

padilas [110]

Answer:

An electronics company can be produce 350 transistors and 340 computer chips, they can´t produce resistors.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We will name the variables for transistors, resistors and the computer chips.

a = Transistors

b= Resistors

c = Computer chips

2. We propose three linear equations, one for the copper, one for the zinc and one for the glass.

$\left \{ {{3a+3b+2c=1730} \atop {a+2b+c=690}}\atop {2a+b+2c=1380}} \right.$

3. We write the matrix form as Ax=d

$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&3&2\\1&2&1\\2&1&2\end{array}\right)$

$x=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}a\\b\\c\end{array}\right)$

$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1730\\690\\1380\end{array}\right)$

With this formula the solution of x is $x=\frac{d}{A}$ or $x=A^{-1}d$

4. We will find the inverse matrix $A^{-1}$ using the formula:

$A^{-1} = \frac{1}{detA} (C_{A})^{T}$

a. det A

$det A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&3&2\\1&2&1\\2&1&2\end{array}\right] =3*(4-1)-3*(2-2)+2*(1-4)=9-0-6=3$

b. $(C_{A})^{T}$

$C_{A}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}4-1&.(2-2)&1-4\\-(6-2)&6-4&-(3-6)\\3-4&-(3-2)&6-3\end{array}\right)$

$C_{A}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&.0&-3\\-4&2&3\\-1&-1&3\end{array}\right)$

$(C_{A}) ^T=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&0&-3\\-4&2&3\\-1&-1&3\end{array}\right)^T$

$(C_{A}) ^T=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)$

c. $A^{-1}$

$A^{-1}=\frac{1}{3} \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)$

5. As $x=\frac{d}{A}$ or $x=A^{-1}d$ , the solution of x is:

$x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1730\\690\\1380\end{array}\right)$

$x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}(3*1730)+(-4*690)+(-1*1380)\\(0*1730)+(2*690)+(-1*1380)\\(-3*1730)+(3*690)+(3*1380)\end{array}\right)$

$x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1050\\0\\1020)\end{array}\right)$

$X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}350\\0\\340\end{array}\right]$

<u><em>Therefore:</em></u>

<u><em>a= 350 Transistors</em></u>

<u><em>b=0 Resistors</em></u>

<u><em>c=340 Computer chips</em></u>

In the garden, the ratio of roses to daisies is 1:3. There are 8 roses. How many daisies are there.

ivann1987 [24]

24 daises is the answer because if there is 8 roses and the ratio is 1:3 then you would multiply 8 by 3 to solve.
