Answer:

7 units long

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a right triangle ABC

  • AB = 25 units
  • BC = 24 units

We are required to determine the length of AC

  • We are going to use the Pythagoras theorem;
  • According to the theorem, if a and b are the legs of a right triangle and c is the hypotenuse, then;

a² + b² = c²

In this case;

AB is the hypotenuse and BC is one of the legs of the triangle;

Therefore;

AB² = BC²+AC²

Rearranging the formula;

AC² = AB² - BC²

       = 25² - 24²

       = 625 - 576

       = 49

AC = √49

     = 7

Thus, AC is 7 units long

1. What is the extraneous solution of √x−3 + x = 9?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

1. x = 12

2. 3∛4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We are given the equation of x as \sqrt{x - 3} + x = 9 and we have to find the extraneous solution of the equation.

Now, \sqrt{x - 3} + x = 9 ............. (1)

⇒ \sqrt{x - 3} = 9 - x

Squaring both sides we get,

⇒ x - 3 = 81 - 18x + x²

⇒ x² - 19x + 84 = 0

⇒ x² - 12x - 7x + 84 = 0

⇒ (x - 12)(x - 7) = 0

⇒ x = 12 or 7.

Now, putting x = 12 in the equation (1) we get,

\sqrt{12 - 3} + 12 \neq   9

Again, putting x = 7 in the equation (1) we get,

\sqrt{7 - 3} + 7 = 9

Therefore, x = 12 is an extraneous solution of this equation. (Answer)

2. The volume of a cube with side lengths a ft. is given to be 108 ft³.

So, a³ = 108

⇒ a = 3∛4 feet.

Therefore, the length of the sides of the cube are each 3∛4 feet. (Answer)

What is the area plz show steps so I Understand thank you
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

2pi +6

Step-by-step explanation: First you can get the are of the triangle by doing (base *height)/2 this will be (3*4)/2 whcih is 6

Area of the half circle. To get the area of the circle u do radius^2*pi. this will be 2^2*pi in this example. so 4pi. because its half u have to to divide it by 2, so 4pi/2 is 2pi.

Now 2pi + 6 is the anwser

dexar [7]

Answer:

x = 0, y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4y = 28

-4x - y = 7

____________

x - 4y = 28

-16x - 4y = 28

____________  _

17x = 0

x = 0

0 - 4y = 28

y = -7

What is the answer for x and y
sveta [45]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

180 degrees = Triangle

Angle 1 = 60

angle 2 = 90 because it's a right triangle

Angle 3 = 180 - (60+90) = 30

60 + 90 = 150

180 - 150 = 30
