Hyp^2 = leg1^2 + leg2^2
hyp^2  -leg1^2 = leg2^2
17^2 - 8^2 = leg2^2
leg2^2 = 289 -64
leg2^2 = 225
leg2 = 15

<span>We have to use PEMDAS for this expression.

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

</span>(2x^2 - 5x + 4)                    Original Mathematical Expression

[2(7)^2 - 5(7) + 4]                 Plugging the value of x, 7 into expression.

There are parentheses, so that means we have to work in them.

There are exponents, so we have to do those first.

[2(49) - 5(7) +4]                    Exponents.

There is multiplication, that we can do, so we do that left to right.

[98 - 35 + 4]                         Multiplication.

There is no division.

There is addition and subtraction, so we do those left to right.

[63 + 4]                                Subtraction.

67                                        Addition.

Which equation is a point slope form equation for line AB ?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

y-5=\frac{3}{4}(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a line in point slope form is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

step 1

Find the slope m

we have the points

A(-2,-1),B(6,5)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{5+1}{6+2}

m=\frac{6}{8}

simplify

m=\frac{3}{4}

step 2

Find the equation of the line

we have

(x1,y1)=(6,5)

m=\frac{3}{4}

substitute

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-5=\frac{3}{4}(x-6)

Write a fraction that is less then 5/6 and has a denominator of 8
Verdich [7]

So we want to write a fraction that is less than 5/6 and has a denominator of 8. So lets start from 1/1 that is greater then 5/6 and doesn't have 8 as a denominator. Lets take one half from 1/1 and well get 1/2.
