Mathematics

raketka [301]3 years ago

Answer:

the Pythagorean theorem is

a ^{2}  + b {}^{2}  = c {}^{2}

so plug in the numbers

a ^{2}  + 17 {}^{2}  = 15 {}^{2}

then square each of the known numbers to get

a {}^{2}  + 289 = 225

subtract 289 from 225 to get -64

then you are left with

a {}^{2}  =  - 64

then take the square root of -64

to get -8

Answer:

a^2 = c^2 - b^2

to get A though you need to take the square root.

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to rearrange the formula to get a by itself.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

a^2 = c^2 - b^2

to get A though you need to take the square root.

Which of the following cannot be solved using the quadratic formula?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic formula is used only to solve the quadratic equations .

Means the equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

In this the x^2 part is must because that only makes the equation a quadratic.

Looking at the four options given to you , only the option C has the missing x^2 term, which makes it a linear equation and hence the quadratic formula cannot be applied there .

So the right option for your question with the quadratic formula is

option

C

What is the least common denominator (LCD) for these fractions? 2/7 and 9/10
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

7 and 10 = 70, This is the correct answer because 7 times 10 equals 70, and 10 times 7 equals 70 too, so 70 is the LCD

7 and 10 = 1, This is impossible because anything multiplied by 7 naturally does not get 1 as a answer, including 10 too. X

7 and 10 = 10, Only 10 times 1 equals 10, but 7 a natural whole number does not equal 10. X

7 and 10 = 35, Only 7 times 5 equals 35, but 10 times a whole number does not equal 35. X
