Find the area of a right triangle if the legs are congruent and the hypotenuse is 16

Since the sides are equal and it is a right triangle then use pythagorean theorem with a and b as both the same- you get 2a^2=16^2 solve for a and you get square root 128. Area of a triangle is .5 base times height  and the base=height in this triangle so it is .5 times square root 128 squared which is 64 units squared

State the Multiplicative identity property of one using the variable b.
KengaRu [80]
For a property with such a long name, it's really a simple math law. The multiplicative identity property states that any time you multiply a number by 1, the result, or product, is that original number. To write out this property using variables, we can say that n * 1 = n.

What is the minimum point of the graph???
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

(-2,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an upwards opening parabola, the minimum point is at the vertex

We can find the x coordinate of the vertex by

y = 2x^2 +8x +9

where a=2  b =8 and c =9

x = -b/2a

x = -8/(2*2)

  = -8/4 = -2

The x coordinate is -2

Now substitute this in to find the y coordinate

y = 2(-2)^2 +8(-2)+9

  = 2*4 -16+9

  8-16+9

  =1

The vertex = (-2,1), which is the minimum point

The sum of two numbers is 51.
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

21 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 51

x - y = 9

add the two equations and y's will cancel out

2x = 42  divide by 2

x = 21   so put 21 in for x in the top equation and solve

21 + y = 51

y = 30
