Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula is a squared + b squared = c squared

12 times 12 = 144

7 times 7 = 49

144 + 49 = 193

so 15 times 15 should = 193

but 15 times 15 = 225

Answer:

This triangle is not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

If it were a right triangle, then the pythagorean theorum would work

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + 7^2 = 15^2

144 + 49 = 225

This is not true because 144+49=193, not 225

So this triangle is not a right triangle

A freight train travels at 30 mph. If the freight train is 300 miles ahead of an express train traveling at 55 mph, how long wil
melisa1 [442]
Distance<-------------300--------------><-------------------x----------------->
          ⊕---------------------------------⊕--------------------------------------⊕                      Express                                  Freight                            Overtaking point
   Speed 55                              speed 30

Let x be the distance travelled by Freight until the point of overtaking
Time = Distance/Speed, then:

Time (freight) = Distance (fright)/Speed (freight) And
Time (Express) = Distance (Express)/Speed (Express).
Now plug in the relative number:

Time (freight) = x/30  and Time (express) = (x+300)/55. But note that both times are equal, then:
x/30 = (x+300)/55 OR (x÷30 = (x+300)÷55) [Answer C]
Now let's find the distance x. Cross multiplication;

55x= 30(300+x) →55x = 9,000 + 30x
55x - 30x = 9,000 → 25x = 9,000 and x = 9,000/25 = 360 miles
Time needed for Freight to travel 360 m = 360/30= 12 Hours
Time needed for Express to travel (300+360) m = 660/55= 12 Hours
As you see, it's the same time of 12 hours
Don't forget that Distance = Speed x time or time = Distance/Speed, etc.

Talia used 1/3 of a piece of wood for the base of her project 1/4 of the piece of wood for the vertical support and the rest for
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the total piece of wood is of length 1.

It is provided that Talia used \frac{1}{3} of the piece of wood for the base of he project.

She use \frac{1}{4} of the piece of wood for the for the vertical support.

The remaining wood she used for horizontal support.

The amount of wood used for horizontal support can be computed by the subtracting the amount of wood used for base of the project and vertical support form 1.

Compute the amount of wood used for horizontal support as follows:

Horizontal\ support=1-Base\ of\ project-Vertical\ support\\= 1 - \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\\  =\frac{12-4-3}{12} \\=\frac{5}{12}

Thus, the fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

The following stem-and-leaf plot represents the scores earned by Mr. Roberts's class on their most recent science test.
Alinara [238K]
First we need to count the total number scores. This can be done from the stem and leaf plot. The total number of scores are 19. The total number of values is odd, so the median position will be:

\frac{19+1}{2}=10th

Thus the 10th score is the median score for the class of Mr. Robert. The 10th score from the stem and leaf plot is 81.

Thus 81 is the median score of Mr. Robert's Class.
