Answer:

D. CA = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that given a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse (longest side) c:

a² + b² = c²

Here, the legs are 3 and 4, so a = 3 and b = 4. Plug these in to find c:

a² + b² = c²

3² + 4² = c²

9 + 16 = c²

25 = c²

c = √25 = 5

The answer is thus D.

Answer:

  CA = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sides are 3 and 4, we recognize this as a 3:4:5 right triangle, with CA = 5. Using the Pythagorean theorem confirms this:

  CA² = AB² +BC²

  CA² = 3² +4² = 9 +16 = 25

  CA = √25

  CA = 5

Diameter=10.5 in . Determine the area of each circle. Use 3.14 or 22/7 for pie . Round to the nearest tenth.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

86.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle: pi*r^2

  • first find the radius

10.5in /2= 5.25in

  • find the square

5.25^2=27.5625

  • multiply with pi

27.5625*3.14=86.54625

rounded 86.5 in

What if X if [ -1 -2 4 8] +X= [-5 -1 2 1]?
Arada [10]

Answer:

[-4 1 -2 - 7]

Step-by-step explanation:

[-1 - 2 4 8] + X = [-5 - 1 2 1]

X= [-5 - 1 2 1]- [-1 - 2 4 8]

X=[-5-(-1) - 1-(-2) 2-4 1-8]

X=[-4 1 - 2 - 7]

2y = 4x - 8 <br>3x + 2y = 6<br>graph​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

I find it convenient to let a graphing calculator draw the graph (attached).

__

If you're drawing the graph by hand, there are a couple of strategies that can be useful.

The first equation is almost in slope-intercept form. Dividing it by 2 will put it in that form:

  y = 2x -4

This tells you that the y-intercept, (0, -4) is a point on the graph, as is the point that is up 2 and right 1 from there: (1, -2). A line through those points completes the graph.

__

The second equation is in standard form, so the x- and y-intercepts are easily found. One way to do that is to divide by the constant on the right to get ...

  x/2 +y/3 = 1

The denominators of the x-term and the y-term are the x-intercept and the y-intercept, respectively. If that is too mind-bending, you can simply set x=0 to find the y-intercept:

  0 +2y = 6

  y = 6/2 = 3

and set y=0 to find the x-intercept

  3x +0 = 6

  x = 6/3 = 2

Plot the intercepts and draw the line through them for the graph of this equation.

___

Here, we have suggested graphing strategies that don't involve a lot of manipulation of the equations. The idea is to get there as quickly as possible with a minimum of mistakes.
