Answer is 9.5 First find DC by doing the Pythagorean theorem
BC is 3 BD is 5
So 3^2+ DC= 5^2
9+____=25
So DC is 4 cuz 4times 4=16

Now add AD+DC=AC

5+4=9

So BC is 3 the bottom AC is 9
3^2+9^2= 9+81=90 the sq rt of 90 is 9.5

<h2>Answer:</h2>

             AB=3\sqrt{10}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In right angled triangle ΔBCD we have:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem we have:

       BD^2=BC^2+CD^2

5^2=3^2+CD^2\\\\25=9+CD^2\\\\CD^2=25-9\\\\CD^2=16\\\\CD=\pm 4

But as a length of a side can't be negative.

Hence, we have:

                CD=4

Also, In right angled triangle ΔBCA using the Pythagorean Theorem we have:

AB^2=AC^2+BC^2\\\\AB^2=(AD+CD)^2+BC^2\\\\AB^2=(5+4)^2+3^2\\\\AB^2=9^2+3^2\\\\AB^2=81+9\\\\AB^2=90\\\\AB=\pm 3\sqrt{10}

( Since, on taking square root on both the side we have negative or positive term but the length of a side can't be negative.

Hence, we took answer as a positive value)

Hence, we have:

              AB=3\sqrt{10}

The expression below is a sum of cubes. True or false<br> 64x^3+ 125<br> A. True<br> B. False
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

64x³ + 125

64x³ = (4x)³ ← a perfect cube

125 = 5³ ← a perfect cube

Thus 64x³ + 125 ← is a sum of cubes

Determine the numerical length of JK.​
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

30

So the two sectors add to the full length:

JK + IJ = IK

x+6 + 9 = 2x

Rearrange:

x=15

So the numerical length:

2x

2*15

write a linear equation that intersects y=x^2 at two points. Then write a second linear equation that intersects y=x^2 at just o
Liula [17]

We know that y = x^2 is a parabola, concave up, with vertex in the origin (0,0)

So, we may use three horizontal lines for our purpose: any horizontal line above the x axis will intersect the parabola twice. The x axis itself intersects the parabola once on the vertex, while any horizontal line below the x axis won't intercept the parabola.

Here's the examples:

  • The horizontal line y = 4 intercepts the parabola twice: the system y = x^2,\ y = 4 is solved by x^2=4 \implies x = \pm 2
  • The horizontal line y=0 intercepts the parabola only once: the system is y=x^2,\ y=0 which yields x^2=0\implies x=0 which is a repeated solution
  • The horizontal line y=-5 intercepts the parabola only once: the system is y=x^2,\ y=-5 which yields x^2=-5 which is impossible, because a squared number can't be negative.

The side of a square measures (3x − 6) units. Part A: What is the expression that represents the area of the square? Show your w
liubo4ka [24]

A. The area of a square is given as:

A = s^2

Where s is a measure of a side of a square. s = (2 x – 5) therefore,

A = (2 x – 5)^2                  

Expanding,

A = 4 x^2 – 20 x + 25

 

B. The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable x, in this case 2. Therefore the expression obtained in part A is of 2nd degree.

Furthermore, polynomials are classified according to the number of terms in the expression. There are 3 terms in the expression therefore it is classified as a trinomial.

 

<span>C. The closure property demonstrates that during multiplication or division, the coefficients and power of the variables are affected while during multiplication or division, only the coefficients are affected while the power remain the same.</span>
