Anna35 [415]3 years ago

Answer:

x=8\sqrt{2} units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is an isosceles right triangle.

This implies that, the second leg is also x units.

We use the Pythagoras Theorem to obtain:

x^2+x^2=16^2

2x^2=256

Divide both sides by 2; to get

x^2=128

Take positive square root to get:

x=\sqrt{128}

x=8\sqrt{2}

The moon is about 240,000 miles from the earth what is the distance right now as a whole number multiplied by a power of 10
sertanlavr [38]
240,000 = 24 x 10,000 but 10,000 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10⁴, then:

240,000 = 24 x 10⁴

On a quiz, students were awarded a certain number of points for a correct answer and penalized a certain number of points for an
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Given that the score of the student on the quiz was 25c - 10(15 - c)

It can be seen that the first term of expression for her score (i.e. 25c) shows that 25 marks were awarded to each correct answer.

The second term of the expression (i.e. 10(15 - c)) represent that 10 marks were deducted from each wrong answer.

Thus, the number of wrong answers is 15 - c.

The sum of the correct answers and the wrong answers gives the total number of questions in the quiz.

Thus, the total number of questions in the quiz is given by 15 - c + c = 15.

Therefore, there are 15 questions in the quiz.

I need help finding a solution to this equation: 5 (n-1/10)=1/2
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

n = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5(n− 1 /10 )= 1/ 2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(n− 1 /10 )= 1 /2

(5)(n)+(5)( −1 /10 )= 1/2

(Distribute)

5n +  −1 /2 = 1 /2

Step 2: Add 1/2 to both sides.

5n +  −1 /2  +  1 /2  =  1 /2  +  1 /2

5n=1  

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5n /5  =  1 /5

n=  1 /5
