<h3>Answer: As a fraction, HC is 21/4 units long</h3><h3>In decimal form, HC is 5.25 units long.</h3>
==============================================
Work Shown:
Let x = HC and y = BH
AH = 12-x since AH = 12-HC and x = HC
---------------
See the attached drawing below. The altitude BH forms three similar triangles which makes the proportion below possible
HC/BH = BH/AH
x/y = y/(12-x) ... substitution
x(12-x) = y^2 ... cross multiply
y^2 = -x^2+12x
note how I isolated y^2 instead of y. We will use this equation later.
---------------
Focus on triangle AHB. Use the pythagorean theorem
(BH)^2 + (AH)^2 = (AB)^2
(y)^2 + (12-x)^2 = (9)^2
y^2 + 144-24x+x^2 = 81
-x^2+12x + 144-24x+x^2 = 81 ... replace y^2 with -x^2+12x
-x^2+12x + 144-24x+x^2-81 = 0
-12x + 63 = 0
-12x = -63
x = -63/(-12)
x = 5.25 <<-- answer in decimal form
x = 5 + 0.25
x = 5 + 1/4
x = 20/4 + 1/4
x = 21/4 <<-- answer as a fraction
Are you in kindergarten
divide 10x^3 by 5x to get 2x^2 and then divide -25x by 5x to get -5
Answer is 2x^2-5
Choice #1
X=-1 and y=5
As when u replace the values x will give you negative 1 and when u replace negative 1 in y=-5x you get 5
1. Find the surface area of the rectangular prism. (1 point)
<span>Measures are 2, 3, and 4 inches. Let W=2, L=3, H=4 </span>
<span>a rectangular has six sides, the total surface area is equal to 6 plains: </span>
<span>2*W*L + 2*L*H + 2*L*W </span>
<span>= 2*(W*L + L*H + L*W) </span>
<span>= 2 * (2*3 + 3*4 + 4*2) </span>
<span>= 2 * ( 6 + 12 + 8 ) </span>
<span>= 2 * 26 </span>
<span>= 52 ................... the last choice </span>
<span>2. A cube has a side length of x feet. Which expression represents the surface area of the cube? (1 point) </span>
<span>Area of one face = x^2, Total Area of 6 faces = 6*x^2 = 2x^2 units </span>
<span>3. Find the surface area of the cylinder. Use 3.14 for pi . (1 point) </span>
<span>Length: 15 cm, Diameter: 2 cm </span>
<span>A cylinder has 3 surfaces: two circles + one curved surface area </span>
<span>...... two circles of 2cm diameter (1cm radius) </span>
<span>A = pi*r^2 = 3.14*1*1 = 3.14 sq. cm ...... two circles' area = 6.28 sq.cm </span>
<span>Curved surface area = circumference * length </span>
<span>.... circumference = pi*d = 3.14 * 2 = 6.28 cm ......... length = 15 </span>
<span>curved surface area = 6.28*15 = 94.2 sq. cm </span>
<span>Add both for total surface area = 6.28 + 94.2 = 100.48 sq.cm </span>
<span>4. The bottom of a shopping bag measures 8 inches by 10 inches. The bag has a height of 12 inches. How much paper is needed to make the bag? (1 point) </span>
<span>two pieces of paper ... one for bottom = 8*10 = 80 sq.in </span>
<span>the other ... height * perimeter of the bottom = 12*(2*(10+8)) = 12 * 2 * 18 = 432 sq.in </span>
<span>Add both: 80 + 432 = 512 sq.in <<<<<<<<<<<</span>
Answer:
yes this is the right answer is 4X
