The Pythagorean theorem works.

12^2+9^2=c^2
144+81=c^2
225=c^2
15=c

Therefore the perimeter is 12 + 9 + 15 = 36 in. (B)

Then you applied it incorrectly

for a right triangle with legs legnth a and b and hypotonuse c,
a^2+b^2=c^2
hypotonuse=longest side or side oposite right angle



so we see that
hypotnuse=c=unknown
legs are legnth a and b or12 and 9
plug in
a=12
b=9
c=c
a^2+b^2=c^2
12^2+9^2=c^2
144+81=c^2
125=c^2
sqrt both sides
15=c

the legnth of the hypotnuse=15

to find the perimiter, you add all sides up
a+b+c=
12+9+15=
36

answer is 36 inches


B is answer

5x^2+11x=0 quadratic equation
hammer [34]
5x^{2} + 11x = 0

5x^{2} + 11x + 0 = 0
x = \frac{-(11) +/- \sqrt{(11)^{2} - 4(5)(0)}}{2(5)}

x = \frac{-11 +/- \sqrt{121 - 0}}{10}

x = \frac{-11 +/- \sqrt{121}}{10}

x = \frac{-11 +/- 11}{10}

x = \frac{11 + 11}{10}         x = \frac{11 - 11}{10}

x = \frac{22}{10}               x = \frac{0}{10}

x = 2.2              x = 0

In an auditorium, the first row of seats has 30 seats. each row behind the first row has 4 more seats then the row in front of i
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

Row 1: 30+0*4

Row 2: 30+1*4

Row 3: 30+2*4

...

The list goes on. Do you see a pattern here? If we call the row number as r, the formula is 30+(r-1)*4. In the 25th row, the r is 25. So in the formula, it is 30+(25-1)*4=30+24*4=126.

I hope that helped.

Forty percent of students at pine crest middle school have a school sweatshirt. There are 560 students at the school.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 224 students own a school sweatshirt.

Step-by-step explanation:

40% of 560 means 60% do not have one

0.60 is 60% as a decimal

560 x 0.60 = 336 students without a sweatshirt

560 - 336 = 224
