Since they are right triangles use Pythagorean Theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse.
a. 12^2 + b^2 = 13^2
144 + b^2 = 169
subtract 144 from both sides
b^2 = 25
take the square root of both sides
t = 5 This is also know as a Pythagorean Triple 5-12-13
b. a^2 + 9^2 = 12^2
a^2 + 81 = 144
subtract 81 from both sides
a^2 = 63
take the square root of both sides
a = √63
a = √(9 * 7)
a = 3√7
c. 6^2 + 9^2 = c^2
36 + 81 = c^2
117 = c^2
take the square root of each side
c = √117
c = √(9*13)
x = 3√13
Answer:
The y intercept, (0,400) represents the amount of money the radio station originally had. The x-intercept, (8,0), represents the amount of weeks it will take for the radio station to have $0 left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
We don't really have the whole question, but to convert to a decimal, you should divide the numerator by the denominator.
Example:
Convert 5/8 to a decimal.
5 divided by 8 = 0.625
Answer:
.5
Step-by-step explanation:
you got to blaah blahh
7 1/4 - 2 4/5
Turn the denominator into a common denominator for both fractions:
7 5/20 - 2 16/20
To subtract easier, turn the fractions into an improper fraction:
145/20 - 56/20
Subtract the numerators:
145 - 56 = 89 ---> 89/20
Simplify (to get an answer of):
4 9/20
