The set 18 , 24 , 30 represents a Pythagorean triple ⇒ answer B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us explain how to check the set represents a Pythagorean triple

1. Square the largest number

2. Find the sum of the squares of the other 2 numbers

3. Check if the square of the largest number equal the sum of the

squares of the other 2 numbers or not, if they are equal then the

set represents a Pythagorean triple

A. In set 60 , 70 , 100

∵ The longest side is 100 cm

∴ (100)² = 10,000

∵ (60)² + (70)² = 8,500

∵ (100)² ≠ (60)² + (70)²

∴ The set doesn't represent a Pythagorean triple

B. In set 18 , 24 , 30

∵ The longest side is 26 cm

∴ (30)² = 900

∵ (18)² + (24)² = 324 + 576 = 900

∵ (30)² = (18)² + (24)²

∴ The set represents a Pythagorean triple

C. In set 10 , 14 , 17

∵ The longest side is 17 cm

∴ (17)² = 289

∵ (10)² + (14)² = 100 + 196 = 296

∵ (17)² ≠ (10)² + (14)²

∴ The set doesn't represent a Pythagorean triple

D. In set 10 , 20 , 30

∵ The longest side is 30 cm

∴ (30)² = 900

∵ (10)² + (20)² = 100 + 400 = 500

∵ (30)² ≠ (10)² + (20)²

∴ The set doesn't represent a Pythagorean triple

The set 18 , 24 , 30 represents a Pythagorean triple

vredina [299]

You have to add all the numbers and then with that sum divide it by the number of numbers. In this case it would be 42+45+58+63+42+47+52=349. Now divide that by the numbers of numbers which in this case is 7, ~49.85(answer).

How can you find the equation of a line that is parallel/perpendicular to a given line

alexdok [17]

In the Slope-Intercept Form, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Finding The Equation of a Line Parallel to the Given Line: Let the given line be line a and the parallel line be line b.

1) Find the slope of line a.

Example: Line a --> $y = 5x + 2$ . The slope is 5.

2) Find the y-intercept of line b.

To do this, you need to be given the coordinates of a point located on line b.

Example: The slope is 5 and the point is (2, 3), use the Slope-Intercept Formula, $y=mx+b$ ---> $3 = 5(2) + b$ . Then you solve for b.

$3 = 5(2) + b$

$3 = 10 + b$

$3 - 10 = 10 - 10 + b$

$-7 = b$ $b=-7$

The y-intercept of line b is -7

3) Finally, plugin the slope and the y-intercept into the Slope-Intercept Form.

Example: The slope of line b is 5 and the y-intercept is -7. The equation of line b is $y = 5x - 7$ .

Finding The Equation of a Line Perpendicular to The Given Line: Let the given line be line a and the perpendicular line be line b.

1) Find the opposite reciprocal of the slope of line a.

Example: Line a --> $y=5x+2$ . The slope is 5, to find the opposite reciprocal of the slope you use n --> $-\frac{1}{n}$ . In this case, it would be $-\frac{1}{5}$ . The opposite reciprocal of the slope of line a is $-\frac{1}{5}$ , which would be the slope of line b.

2) Find the y-intercept of line b.

To do this, you need to be given the coordinates of the point where line a and line b both intersect.

Example: The slope of line b is $-\frac{1}{5}$ and the point is (1, 7), use the Slope-Intercept Formula, $y=mx+b$ ---> $7=-\frac{1}{5}(1) + b$ . Then you solve for b.
