From this equation, we need to find the value of m

We first isolate the variable m with its coefficient from the other values, so:

m2.8 - 4.9 = -7.11

m2.8 = -7.11 + 4.9

A negative and a positive will make a negative,so:

m2.8 = -2.21

Next we isolate the variable m completely from the other value so we divide both sides by 2.8, so

m2.8 / 2.8 = -2.21 /2.28

m = -0.78

Therefore the value of m is -0.78

Triangle ABC is a right triangle. The sides measure AB = 3 and BC = 4. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find CA. A. CA = 25 B. CA

Vesna [10]

Answer:

CA = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sides are 3 and 4, we recognize this as a 3:4:5 right triangle, with CA = 5. Using the Pythagorean theorem confirms this:

CA² = AB² +BC²

CA² = 3² +4² = 9 +16 = 25

CA = √25

CA = 5

The length of a rectangle is 59 inches greater than twice the width. If the diagonal is 2 inches more than the length, find the

Paul [167]

So.. hmm notice the picture here

we know the length is 59 more than twice the width,
twice the width, 2 * w, or 2w
59 more than that
2w + 59

we also know that, whatever that is, the diagonal of it is,
2 more inches than that, or
(2w + 59) + 2

now.. use the pythagorean theorem
$\bf c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \qquad 
\begin{cases}
a=2w+59\\
b=w\\
c=(2w+59)+2\to 2w+61
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
(2w+61)^2=(2w+59)^2+(w)^2
\\ \qquad\qquad \uparrow\qquad \qquad\qquad \qquad \uparrow \\
\textit{expand using binomial theorem, or FOIL}$

you'd end up with a quadratic, after simplifying, solve for "w"

A stalk of corn grew 42 inches in a week. Find the unit rate in inches per day

kozerog [31]

To find the unit rate, we need to set the number of days to 1. Therefore, we will divide by 7. We also have to divide 42 by 7 to make sure the equation stays proportional. Using this knowledge, we can see that if the corn grew 42 inches in 7 days, it grows 6 inches per day.
