Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length in the right triangle

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

it depends

Step-by-step explanation:

If 17 is the hypotenuse

$c=17\\\\b=12\\\\a=?\\\\c^{2} =a^2+b^2\\\\17^2=a^2+12^2\\\\17^2-12^2=a^2\\\\(17-12)(17+12)=a^2\\\\5(27)=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{9*3*5} \\\\a=3\sqrt{15} \\\\a=11.6$

if you are looking for the hypotenuse

$a=17\\\\b=12\\\\c=?\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\17^2+12^2=c^2\\\\289+144=c^2\\\\433=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{433} \\\\c=20.8$

tangare [24]

Answer:

$750

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up the equation 30x + 50y = z where x = the amount of small dogs, y = the amount of big dogs, and z = the total.

After plugging in the x and y values to solve for z, we are left with the following equation:

30(15) + 50(6) = 750

If the point (a,3) lies on the graph of the equation 5x + y = 8 then a =?

Contact [7]

Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point (a, 3) is on the line: 5x + y = 8.

Any point on the line satisfies the equation.

So, (a, 3) should satisfy the equation 5x + y = 8

Substituting x = a and y = 3, we get:

5(a) + 3 = 8

$\implies 5a = 5$

⇒ a = 1

Therefore, (1, 3) is the point on the line.
