The 7 miles and 24 miles make up two "legs" of a right triangle.
The third side (or hypotenuse) is the distance between the towns.
distance^2 = 7^2 + 24^2
distance^2 = 49 + 576
distance^2 = 625
distance = square root of 625 or 25
Answer:
8 Books
Step-by-step explanation:
First find how many she had before buying 8 more-
12 - 8 = 4
Then multiply that by 2
4 x 2 = 8
The had 8 books to begin with
Well you are given the roots.
if we have 3 it would.have to be x^3. So something like:
y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d
this could.also be written:
y = (x + a) (x + b) (x + c)
when you are able to write it like this, we know that the opposite of a, b, and c are roots. this is because if we can make any of the insides of the 3 parenthesis equal 0 then y = 0 and that x.is a root. Well if we know the 3 roots that x will be then we just have to figure out the a, b, and c. So let's plug our roots in.
y = (-1 + a) (-5 + b) (-3 + c)
now we have to make each parenthesis equal 0 to find what a, b, and c should be. It is obvious a = 1 to make.that one zero and b = 5 and c = 3. So we know a, b, and c. now let's plug.those into our first equation.
y = (x + 1) (x + 5) (x + 3)
this is your equation. You can multiply out if necessary
Answer:
I don't know if this is correct but wouldn't it be 560?
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have 10 on one side, you divide 10 by 1/4 to get 40. So you need 40 blocks to fill one side, and 3 1/2 on the other only needs 14. 14*40=560.
