Find the unknown side length

For any right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem states that for any right triangle, the legs when squared and added together will be equal to the hypotenuse squared.

In mathematical notation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Where the variables a and b are the legs and the variable c is the hypotenuse.

Because we know the two side lengths of the triangle, we can solve for the unknown side.

We know the length of one of the legs and the hypotenuse.

Plug in the values.

10^2 + b^2 = 24^2 \\ \\ 
100 + b^2 = 576 \\ \\ 
b^2 = 476 \\ \\ 


b = \sqrt{476}

So, the square root of 476 is the unknown length.

A recipe requires ¼ cup of oil for every ⅔ cup of water. How much oil (in cups) is needed per cup of water?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

3/8 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by 2 to get the value for 1/3 cup of water:

1/3 cup water = 1/8 cup of oil

Now, multiply each side of the equation by 3 to get 1 cup of water:

1 cup water = 3/8 cup of oil

hope this helps!

Solve for the following equation step by step and justify your steps when using an exponential property.
mel-nik [20]

x = \frac{5}{7}

using the ' laws of exponents '

• a^{m} × a^{n} = a^{( m + n )}

•  a^{m} ÷ a^{n} = a^{(m - n)}

• (a^{m})^n = a^{mn}

7^{2} × 7^{3} = 7^{5} ÷ 7^{3x} = 7^{5 - 3x}

7^{4x} = 7^{5 - 3x}

equating the exponents since bases on both sides are 7

4x = 5 - 3x

7x = 5 ⇒ x =\frac{5}{7}
