Answer:  The correct option is (B) 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the length of the leg s in the triangle shown in the figure.

From the figure, we note that

the given triangle is a right-angled one, where

length of the hypotenuse, H = √18 units,

length of one leg, P = 3 units

and

length of the other leg, s = B =?.

From Pythagoras theorem, we have

H^2=P^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow (\sqrt{18})^2=3^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow 18=9+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=18-9\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=9\\\\\Rightarrow B=3.

Thus, the length of the leg s is 3 units.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Clara found the product of 3 – 6y2 and y2 + 2. Her work is shown below.
Kisachek [45]

Answer: No the students work is not correct. Because you are using distribution. Which means that 3 has to multiply the y2 and 2 not just the y2! And after you distribute it you need to simplify!

Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=1/2x-3 and goes through the point (1,3)
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-3

Slope of this line m₁ = 1/2

Slope of the line perpendicular to this line = m₂

m₁ *m₂ = -1

m₂ = -1 *2/1 = -2

Slope  = -2; (1,3)

y- y₁ = m(x-x₁)

y - 3 = -2(x - 1)

y - 3 = -2x + 2

y = -2x +2 +3

y = -2x + 5
