Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So this is just playing with the pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 with a and b as legs and c as the hypotenuse.
Let's say a is equal to 1500 so then c is 4 times b
1500^2 + b^2 = (4b)^2 Now we just treat this like a normal algebraic expression
2,250,000 = 16b^2 - b^2
2,250,000 = 15b^2
150,000 = b^2
sqrt(150,000) = b
100sqrt(15) = b
You can check this now.
1500^2 + sqrt(150,000)^2 = c^2
sqrt(2,250,000 + 150,000) = c
sqrt(2,400,000) = c
400sqrt(15) = c Which fits the requirement of c = 4b
Answer:
y- intercept = - 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 25)
m = 
= 
= - 4.5 , then
y = - 4.5x + c
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the equation
Using (1, - 7), then
- 7 = - 4.5 + c ⇒ c = - 7 + 4.5 = - 2.5
y- intercept c = - 2.5
The answer is 1.
