Your answer to your question is A ;)
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 9² = 16²
x² + 81 = 256 ( subtract 81 from both sides )
x² = 175 ( take the square root of both sides )
x =
= 5
≈ 13.23 units ( to 2 dec. places )
Answer:
-14x
Step-by-step explanation:
To put in simple terms, this question is asking what -2x+-12x is. To solve this you must add -2 and -12. So... -2+-12=-14. Then add the one "x" at the end.
Answer:
- Annie- 17 hours, Brian- 3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours Annie travelled be a, and same of Brian be b
<u>Then we have</u>
<u>Substituting a in the first equation</u>
- 5b + 2 + b = 20
- 6b = 20 - 2
- 6b = 18
- b = 3
<u>Then finding a</u>
<u>So the answer is:</u>
- Annie- 17 hours, Brian- 3 hours
Answer:
two real, unequal roots
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a quadratic equation. The quadratic formula can be used to determine how many and what kind of roots may exist:
Find the discriminant, which is defined as b^2 - 4ac, if ax^2 + bx + c = 0. In this case, a = 1, b = -2 and c = -8, so that the discriminant value is
(-2)^2 - 4(1)(-8), or 4 + 32 = 36.
Because the discriminant is real and positive, we know for certain that we have two real, unequal roots
