Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number has exactly 2 divisors: itself and 1. It can be divided evenly by 1 and itself. Those numbers are: 1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13,... ...

It can be a multiple of 1 and of a prime number.

A triangle has one leg measuring 10 inches and the hypotenuse measuring 20 inches. the other leg measures 10\sqrt[]{3} 10 3 inch

stiv31 [10]

From the description given for the triangle above, I think the type of triangle that is represented would be a right triangle. This type of triangle contains a right angle and two acute angles. In order to say or prove that it is a right triangle, it should be able to satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem which relates the sides of the triangle. It is expressed as follows:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

where c is the hypotenuse or the longest side and a, b are the two shorter sides.

To prove that the triangle is indeed a right triangle, we use the equation above.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = 20^2 = 10^2 + (10sqrt(3))^2
400 = 100 + (100(3))
400 = 400

Graph the following function and identify any shifts, stretches, and symmetry and x and y intercepts:

klasskru [66]

Shifts:

Shifted three units right and two units up to match the blue parabola

Stretches:

It doesn't have any stretches

Symmetry:

$x=3$

x and y intercepts:

x intercpets: It has no x-intercepts

y-intercepts: (0, 11)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The pattern of the quadratic function is:

$f(x)=x^2$

Whose graph is shown below as the red parabola.

So here we need to identify some characteristics of:

$y = f(x) = (x - 3)^2 + 2$

Whose graph is shown below as the blue parabola.

As you can see, the blue parabola is a transformation of the red parabola. The rule is as follows:

The red parabola has been shifted three units right and two units up to match the blue parabola.

This is so because, for any function:

$y=f(x)$

We have the following transformations:

$y=h(x)=f(x+c)+k \\ \\ \\ \bullet \ c>0 \ Shift \ f(x) \ c \ units \ to \ the \ left \\ \\ \bullet \ c0 \ Shift \ f(x) \ k \ units \ up \\ \\ \bullet \ k$

On the other hand, the blue graph has neither stretches nor x intercepts. Finally, its axes of symmetry is $x=3$ . The y-intercept is (0, 11) is indicated in the figure.
