Hello!

To solve this we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, a²+b²=c², where a and b represent the legs and c represents the hypotenuse. We will solve below.

1²+3²=c²
1+9=10

We have 10=c². We can isolate c by finding the square root of 10.

√10≈3.16

Therefore, the other side could be 3.16.
---------------------------------------
Note that 3 could also be the hypotenuse. We could solve the equation the other way around to see what the other side could be (it could be the hypotenuse or a leg).

9-1=8
√8≈2.83

Therefore, the length of the third side could be either 3.16 or 2.83.

I hope this helps!

QUICK PLSS 1. Jabo orders a meal that cost $20.00.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

$25.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost of the meal with the sales tax:

20 x 0.075 = 1.5

Add the sales tax to the total

20 + 1.5 = 21.50

Find the tip:

21.5 x 0.2 = 4.3

Add the tip to the total cost so far:

21.50 + 4.30 = 25.80

Please help me understand and explain it to me please.<br><br>Recursive Sequence Function ​
DedPeter [7]

A recursive sequence is a sequence of numbers whose values are determined by the numbers that come before them in the sequence.

We’re given a sequence whose (n + 1)-th term f(n + 1) depends on the value of the n-th term f(n), specified by the recursive rule

f(n + 1) = -4 f(n) + 3

We’re also given the 1st term in the sequence, f(1) = 1. Using this value and the recursive rule, we can find the next term f(2). (Just replace n with 1.)

f(1 + 1) = -4 f(1) + 3

f(2) = -4 • 1 + 3

f(2) = -1

We do the same thing to find the next term f(3) :

f(2 + 1) = -4 f(2) + 3

f(3) = -4 • (-1) + 3

f(3) = 7

One more time to find the next term f(4) :

f(3 + 1) = -4 f(3) + 3

f(4) = -4 • 7 + 3

f(4) = -25

Vivi is a drummer for a band. She burns 756 calories while drumming for 3hours. She burns the same number of calories per hour.
lions [1.4K]

This question uses the concept of the division.

Vivi, the band drummer, burns 765 calories in 3 hours. And she burns these calories at the same rate. Which means she burns the same amount of calories per hour.

Thus, the set up equation for this question will be:

Energy burnt in 3 hours=756 calories

Therefore, Energy burnt in 1 hour = \frac{756}{3} =252 Calories.

Thus, the required answer is that Vivi burns 252 Calories of energy per hour while drumming.
