By the pythagorean theorem, we know that (leg1)^2 + (leg2)^2 = hypotenuse^2. to see the proof refer to the following link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMT668/EMT668.Student.Folders/HeadAngela/essay1/Pythagorean.html
plugging in what we know we have 16^2 + leg^2 = 20^2 and we find that leg = 12.

Add the following polynomials, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. Write the answer in descending powers o

tresset_1 [31]

ANSWER
$13 {x}^{3} - 2 {x}^{2} + 3x + 13$

EXPLANATION

The first polynomial is
$5 {x}^{3} + 3 {x}^{2} - 5x + 4$

The second polynomial is
$8 {x}^{3} - 5 {x}^{2} + 8x + 9$

If we add the two polynomials we obtain,

$(5 {x}^{3} + 3 {x}^{2} - 5x + 4) + (8 {x}^{3} - 5 {x}^{2} + 8x + 9)$

Next we group like terms to obtain,

$5 {x}^{3} + 8 {x}^{3}+ 3 {x}^{2} -5 {x}^{2} - 5x + 8x + 9 + 4$

We simplify the to obtain,

$13{x}^{3} -2{x}^{2} + 3x + 13$

This is the sum of the two polynomials in descending powers of
$x$

Descending means from the highest power to the least.

The cost of a DVD box set increase from 30 to 35 a student says that this represent a 5% increase in the price explain the stude

tamaranim1 [39]

So it went from 30 to 35, or 5 bucks, if we take 30 to be the 100%, what is 5 off of it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
30&100\\
5&p
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{30}{5}=\cfrac{100}{p}\implies p=\cfrac{5\cdot 100}{30}$
