Cross multiply.

4(x - 8) = 5(2)

4x - 32 = 10

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x = 21/2

x = 10.5

 4(x - 8) = (2)(5)
4x - 32 = 10
4x = 42
  x = 10.5

On the X-axis y=0

So

x2y−x2+4y=0

becomes

x2(0)−x2+4(0)=0

→−x2=0

→x=0

On the Y-axis x=0

and the original equation

x2y−x2+4y=0

becomes

(0)2y−(0)2+4y=0

→y=0

The only intercept for the given equation occurs at (0,0)

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle when x=10​?
Schach [20]

Answer:

84 (nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = 10,

Longest leg = (7 x 10) + 4 = 74

Shortest leg = 4 x 10 = 40

Using Pythagoras' Theorem a² + b² = c² (where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle):

⇒ 74² + 40² = c²

⇒ 7076 = c²

⇒ c = √7076 = 84.11896...

⇒ hypotenuse = 84 (nearest whole number)
