Let x be the shorter leg, then the longer is 6x+22 and the hypotenuse is 6x+23.
x² + (6x+22)² = (6x+23)²
x² + 36x² + 264x + 484 = 36x² + 276x + 529
x² - 12x - 45 = 0
(x+3)(x-15)=0
x=-3 or 15. since you can't have negative length discard-3, then the sides are 15, 112, and 113

Which value represents |7.8|?
nika2105 [10]
Since absolute value is just taking the positive value of whatever you put in the function, it is 7.8 as well. Also, absolute value can be described as the distance from 0 on the number line. 7.8 is 7.8 "units" away from 0, thus meaning it is equal to 7.8.

Solve for x. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.
Anna [14]

Answer:

lesser x = -6

greater x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 3)^2 - 81 = 0

(x - 3)^2 = 81

x - 3 = +/- 9

x - 3 = 9   or   x - 3 = -9

x = 12   or   x = -6

John wants to send a letter to Peter, who lives on Tesla
blondinia [14]

Answer:

The minimum number of letters John has to send to be sure that Peter receives his letter is 127 letters

Step-by-step explanation:

The four digit numbers that are multiples of 5 and 7 with the last digit = 0 is found as follows  

Since the last digit of the house number = 10, then the house number is divisible by 10 which also meets the condition that the house number is divisible by 5

We have the four digit numbers from 1000 to 9999

Hence the numbers divisible by both 7 and 10 are from (1000/70 (Which is 14 + 2/7) - 2/7)×70 + 70 = 1050 to (9999/70 (Which is 142 + 59/70)- 59/70)×70= 9940

Which gives 142 - 15 =  127 numbers which are four digit number multiples of 5 and 7 with the last digit = 0

Hence the minimum number of letters John has to send to be sure that Peter receives his letter = 127 letters.

adelina 88 [10]

The answer is Internal Validity.

Internal Validity is high in an experiment. when it demonstrates persuasively that changes in behavior are caused by the independent variable and not by unknown factors.

What is Internal Validity?

  • Internal validity is defined as the degree to which the observed results represent the truth in the population under investigation and are not the consequence of methodological flaws.
  • Internal validity is the degree of certainty that the causal link being examined is reliable and unaffected by other factors or variables.
  • The extent to which study results may be extended (generalized) to other contexts, groups, or events is referred to as external validity.
