Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle

let x be the other leg to be found, then

155² = 124² + x²

24025 = 15376 + x² ( subtract 15376 from both sides )

8649 = x² ( take the square root of both sides )

\sqrt{8649} = x

Hence x = 93 cm ← length of other leg → a

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The answer is B, C, and D. Like terms are terms with all the same variable, so 5x and -x are like terms.

C is correct. If we add -x to 5x, we get 4x. The other numbers remain unchanged because they have no like terms.

D is correct. Applying the rule of like terms, which is that like terms are numbers with the same variable, only add together numbers with the same variable.

Find the center of the circle whose equation is (x - 8) 2 + (y + 2) 2 = 64.
SashulF [63]

If given the equation, you need to take the number beside the x and y and change their signs to get your point:

x - 8 (Take the -8 and make it +8)

y + 2 (Take the +2 and make it -2)

Your point is (8, -2)

For the sentence y=5x-2, what are the missing y values in this table
ANTONII [103]
Y=5x-2 so you have to solve for x
Make y = 0
Then
Y=5x-2
+2. +2
2=5x
Divide by five
X= 2/5
Then
Y=5x-2
Put x into the equation
Y=5(2/5)-2
Y=2-2
Y=0
