Answer:

$b=8.1 cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

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

9 cm is the hypotenuse (c) and 4 cm is a:

$4^2+b^2=9^2$

Simplify

$16+b^2=81$

Isolate $b^2$ by subtracting 16 from both sides

$16-16+b^2=81-16\\b^2=81-16$

Subtract

$b^2=65$

Find the square root

$\sqrt{b^2}=\sqrt{65} \\b=8.062...\\b=8.1$

Done.

Answer:

The answer to your question is b = 8.06 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

hypotenuse = c = 9 cm

long leg = b = ?

short leg = a = 4 cm

Process

This is a right triangle so we must use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the long leg (b)

c² = a² + b²

-Solve for b²

b² = c² - a²

-Substitution

b² = 9² - 4²

-Simplification

b² = 81 - 16

b² = 65

-Result

b = 8.06 cm

What is the vertex of the graph of y = 1/3 (x-9)2 + 5 Question 1 options: (9,5) (3,3) (3,5) (-9,5)

svlad2 [7]

ANSWER

The vertex of the graph of
$y = \frac{1}{3} {(x - 9)}^{2} + 5$
is

$(9,5)$

EXPLANATION

The vertex form of a parabola is given by

$y = a {(x - h)}^{2} + k$

where
$V(h,k)$
is the vertex of the parabola.

The function given to us is

$y = \frac{1}{3} {(x - 9)}^{2} + 5$
This is already in the vertex form.

When we compare this to the general vertex form, we have,

$a = \frac{1}{3}$

$h = 9$
and

$k = 5$

Therefore the vertex of the parabola is

$V(9,5)$

Hence the correct answer is option A.

Find the sum of each set of numbers, as well as the size n of each set of numbers (n = number of numbers in the set). Use these

guapka [62]

We have to add numbers without a calculator.

1) 25, 35, 19, 31

We can group them by the last digit, so they are easy to add:

25 + 35 = 20 + 30 + 5 +5 = 50 + 10 = 60

19 + 31 = 10 + 30 + 9 +1 = 40 + 10 = 50

Then, 60 + 50 = 110

numbers in the set n = 4

Sum = 110

2) 101, 73, 49, 27, 24, 36

We can group them again by the last digit (adding 10, like the previous example).

We can substract the last digit from one number and add it to the other one. The result will be the same, but they will become easier to add.

101 + 49 = 100+50 = 150

73 + 27 = 70 + 30 = 100

24 + 36 = 20 + 40 = 60

150 + 100 + 60 = 250 + 60 = 310

numbers in the set n = 6

Sum = 310

3) 25, 25, 25, 30, 30, 30, 32, 32, 32

In this case we have 3 times the same numbers, so we can add the three different numbers and then multiply the total by 3.

We can use the properties of the multiplication to simplify the product (we will use the distributive property)

25 + 30 + 32 = 27 + 30 + 30 = 87

87 * 3 = 80*3 + 7*3 = 240 + 21 = 261

numbers in the set n = 9

Sum = 261
