The legs are 5 inches long.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
5^2+5^2=c^2 \\
25+25=c^2 \\
50=c^2 \\
c=\sqrt{50} \\
c=\sqrt{25 \times 2} \\
c=5 \sqrt{2} \\
c \approx 7

The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is approximately 7 inches long.

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}  \\  5^{2} + 5^{2} = c^{2}  \\  25 + 25 = c^{2}  \\ 50= c^{2}  \\  \sqrt{50}= c \\ c=7.07
c ≈ 7

The hypotenuse is about 7 inches long.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point ( 8 , − 4 ) and is parallel to the line x − 4 y = 12 x−4y=12?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

as the line is parallel we do not change x-4y what we change is the result x = 8 & y = -4 so the result is 8 - 4 (-4) = 24 so the equation is 24

V5. Suppose you invest $5,000 at 9% interest, compounded annually, for 10 years. Determine the future value of your investment,
Elanso [62]

Answer: $11836.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given. That :

Amount invested = $5000

Interest rate = 9% = 0.09

Period = 10 years, compounded annually

Using the compound interest formula :

A = p(1 + r/n)^nt

A = final amount

P = principal or invested amount

r = rate of interest

n = number of times interest Is applied per period

t = period

A = 5000(1 + 0.09/1)^(1*10)

A = 5000(1.09)^10

A = 5000 * 2.36736367459211723401

A = 11836.81837296058617005

= $11836.8

Ymorist [56]

-2(-x-1)-(x+9)

= -2x + 2 - x - 9

Rearrange

= -2x - x + 2 - 9

= -3x - 7
