(b) is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Pythagorean Theorem,
A² + B² = C²
Where:
A = Length of side 1
B = Length of side 2
C = Hypotenuse
This rule applies to all right-angled triangles.
The length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is always the largest value.
Therefore, we can test the answers with the equation above.
(a)
8² + 18² = 20²
64 + 324 = 400
388 ≠ 400
The rule of Pythagorean theorem doesn't work on a, so (a) is not a right-angled triangle.
(b)
12² + 35² = 37²
144 + 1225 = 1369
1369 = 1369
The rule of Pythagorean theorem works here, so (b) is a right-angled triangle.
X=10 and y=5 so it's the first option
Answer:
Two times at (-1,0) and (2.5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
When the graph intersects or touches x-axis, y is equal to 0
so y = -2x^2 + 3x + 5
=> 0 = -2x^2 + 3x + 5
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a
so a = -2
b = 3
c = 5
substitute in the formula
x = [-3 +/- √(3^2 - 4x-2x5)]/2(-2)
x = [-3 +/- √(9 + 40)]/(-4)
x = [-3 +/- 7]/(-4)
x1 = (-3 + 7)/(-4) = 4/-4 = -1
x2 = (-3 - 7)/(-4) = -10/-4 = 5/2 = 2.5
so the graph has two x-intercepts (-1,0) and (2.5,0), therefore it intersects x-axis two times
31.5
because 3 gallons are lost per minute so 3 x 10.5= 31.5
