Hey there!

A (right) triangle can only be constructed if it can be verified by the Pythagorean Theorum.
Basically, the Pythagorean Theorum is the sum of both legs squared need to be equivalent to the hypotenuse (side across from the 90 degree angle) squared.
Let's try our sides as 1 and 15, then our hypotenuse as 15.
1^2 = 1
15^2 = 225
15^2 = 225
1 + 225 = 226
226 =\ 225.

Your answer is:

No, you cannot construct a triangle with the side lengths of 1, 15 and 15.

I hope this helps!

Henry just got a job at the mall. His job pays an hourly rate of $10.25.
nadezda [96]

Answer:

A. He will have to work 40 hours to buy the headphones

B.  1200 ≤ 10.25x ≤ 2000    where x is # of hrs worked

He can work anywhere between 118 and 196 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Divide 399.95 by 10.25 to get 39.01 hours. But since you cant work 0.01 of an hour, you have to round up to the next hour

B. You want to make more than or equal to 1200, so put that in the inequality. You want to make less or equal to 2000, so you put that in the inequality. In the middle, you put 10.25 an hour multiplied by the number of hours, which is a variable.

To solve, I made 10.25x = 1200, and x equaled 117.07, which rounds up to 118 hours because you cant work a 0.07 of an hour. 118 hours is the low number of the spectrum.

To solve for the highest number on the spectrum, you do 10.25x = 2000, and x equals 195.12, but since you cant work 0.12 of an hour, it rounds up to 196 hours.

The ratio of green pepper plants to red pepper plants in Joe's garden is 2:7. If Joe has 20 more red pepper plants than green pe
Marta_Voda [28]
I found that Joe has 28 red pepper plants and 8 green pepper plants.

to find this, I first set up a proportion:
7/2 = (20+x)/x

then you cross multiply giving you:
7x = 40 + 2x

Subtract 2x from both sides:
5x = 40

solve for x:
x = 8 (which is the amount of green pepper plants)

to find how many red pepper plants he has, plug in x for (20 + x) giving you 28 red pepper plants

Hope I helped :)

The square below has an area of x^2+10x+25 square meters. What expression represents the length of one side of the square?
amm1812

Answer:

(x+5) m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The area of a square shape, x^2+10x+25

We need to find the expression for the length of one side of the square.

The area of a square shaped object is given by :

s=x^2

x is side of the square

s=\sqrt{A} \\\\s^2=x^2+10x+25\\\\=x^2+5x+5x+25\\\\=x(x+5)+5(x+5)\\\\=(x+5)^2\\\\s=(x+5)

So, the sides of the square is (x+5) m.
