PQR is a right-angled triangle. PQ = 16 cm. PR = 8 cm. Calculate the length of
vlada-n [284]
SOLUTION:

PQR is a right-angle triangle.

Therefore, to solve this problem, we will use Pythagoras theorem which is only applicable to right-angle triangles.

Pythagoras theorem is as displayed below:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Where c = hypotenuse of right-angle triangle

Where a and b = other two sides of right-angle triangle

Now we will simply substitute the values from the problem into Pythagoras theorem in order to obtain the length of QR.

c = PQ = 16cm

a = PR = 8cm

b = QR = ?

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

( 8 )^2 + b^2 = ( 16 )^2

64 + b^2 = 256

b^2 = 256 - 64

b^2 = 192

b = square root of ( 192 )

b = 13.8564...

b = 13.86 ( to 2 decimal places )

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the length of QR is 13.86 centimetres to 2 decimal places.

Hope this helps! :)

Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 1/3 hour. Enter the number of miles Ariel swims in 1 minute.
weqwewe [10]

In order to find the distance covered in 1 minute, we need to divide distance covered 2 1/6 miles by 20 minutes.We are given : Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 1/3 hour.

Let us convert 1/3 hour into minutes.

There are 60 minutes in an hour.

Therefore, 1/3 hours = 60 × 1/3 = 20 minutes.

So, we could say, "Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 20 minutes".


2 1/6÷ 20 = 13/6 ÷ 20.

Let us convert division sign into multiplication and flip 20 to 1/20.

We get

<h3>13/6 × 1/20 = 13/120 miles in 1 minute.</h3><h3>In decimal 0.11 mile in 1 minute.</h3>

What is the result of substituting for y in the bottom equation<br> y=x+3<br> y=x^2+2x-4
8_murik_8 [283]

The solutions are (2.1925, 5.1925) and (-3.1925, -0.1925)

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

y = x + 3 ------- eqn 1\\\\y = x^2 + 2x - 4  ----- eqn 2

<em><u>We have to substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>

x + 3 = x^2 + 2x - 4

\mathrm{Switch\:sides}\\\\x^2+2x-4=x+3\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}3\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x^2+2x-4-3=x+3-3\\\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\\x^2+2x-7=x\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x^2+2x-7-x=x-x\\\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\\x^2+x-7=0

\mathrm{Solve\:with\:the\:quadratic\:formula}\\\\\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\\\x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=1,\:b=1,\:c=-7\\\\x =\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-7\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}

x = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{ 1 + 28}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{ -1 \pm \sqrt{29}}{2}

x = \frac{ -1 \pm 5.385 }{2}\\\\We\ have\ two\ solutions\\\\x = \frac{ -1 + 5.385 }{2}\\\\x = 2.1925

Also\\\\x = \frac{ -1 - 5.385 }{2}\\\\x = -3.1925

Substitute x = 2.1925 in eqn 1

y = 2.1925 + 3

y = 5.1925

Substitute x = -3.1925 in eqn 1

y = -3.1925 + 3

y = -0.1925

Thus the solutions are (2.1925, 5.1925) and (-3.1925, -0.1925)
