Answer:a=3.6 and b=4.8

Step-by-step explanation:(a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2)

Where c is hypotenuse is equal to 6. A right triangle is also known as a 3,4,5 triangle where the 2 legs are 3 and 4 and hypotenuse is 5. Find the factor in size difference by dividing your hypotenuse of 6 by the hypotenuse of 5 you get 1.2. Now multiply the 3 and 4 by 1 2 to get your answers of 3.6 and 4.8.

To check work simply plug in your legs as a and b

(3.6^2)+(4.8^2)=(6^2)

(12.96)+(23.04)=(36)

My son, Garrett, is 11 years old and has a piggy bank that he wants to fill. He started with 5 one dollar bills. Every Saturday
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

1) M(x) = 5 + 3x

2) Dependent variable; 3 dollar bills

Independent variable: chores

3) Range is continuous

Domain is discrete

4) Range: 0 ≤ x ≤ 10

Domain: 5 ≤ M ≤ 35

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told he started with 5 number of $1 dollar bills and that every Saturday, he earns 3 more $1 dollar bill.

Thus, total number of $1 bills earned after x number of Saturdays(weekly) is;

M(x) = 5 + 3x

After 10 weeks, total number is;

M(10) = 5 + 3(10)

M(10) = 35

The dependent variable is the 3 more dollar bills earned each Saturday because it depends on chores he completed. While the independent variable is the chores because it doesn't depend on anything.

After 10 weeks, the range and domain will be;

Range: 0 ≤ x ≤ 10

For the; Domain:

For x = 1, M(0) = 5 + 3(0) = 5

M(10) = 35

Thus;

Domain: 5 ≤ M ≤ 35

The range could be all numbers in the interval from 0 to 10. Thus, it is continuous.

Whereas, the domain doesn't contain all the numbers in the interval from 5 to 35. Thus it is Discrete.

The sum of three numbers is 113 . The second number is 3 times the third. The first number is 7 less than the third . What are t
OLga [1]
Number 1 = 17
number 2 = 72
number 3 = 24


work:

the three numbers are symbolized as x, y, and z

x + y + z = 113

number 2 (y) is 3 times the third number (z) so 

y = 3z

so x + 3z + z = 113

the first number (x) is 7 less than than the third number (z) so

x = z - 7

so z -7 + 3z + z = 113

5z - 7 = 113
5z = 120

z = 24

x = 17
y = 72

Hope this helped :)

dexar [7]
Cost of 2 1/2 yards= $15
cost of  1 yard=?
cost of one yard= 15/(2 1/2)
=15/5/2
=15/5*2
=3*2
=$ 6
so the cost of fabric for one yard will be $6

Write an inequality to match this statement: -7 is located to the right of -10. **Hint** You need to use shift and the comma but
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

-7 > -10

Step-by-step explanation:

We just have to compare these two numbers. When you're comparing two negative numbers, the smaller number is the bigger one. Ex. -3 is bigger than -6, so we can say that -3 > -6 (-3 is greater than -6). This means that -7 is larger than -10, which allows you to say that -7 > -10.
