The shortest leg=2*hypotenuse/3

hypotenuse^2=4*hypotenuse^2/9 + 5hypotenuse^2/9

the longest leg is V5/3* hypotenuse

The number of fiction books in a libary is %150 of the number of non-fiction books. the libary has 4,000 books in total. how man
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The number of

Fiction books = x = 2400 fiction books

Non fiction books = y = non fiction books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of

Fiction books = x

Non fiction books = y

The libary has 4,000 books in total.

Hence: x + y = 4000........ Equation 1

The number of fiction books in a libary is %150 of the number of non-fiction books.

x = 150% of y

x = 150/100 × y

x = 1.5y

We substitute 1.5y for x in Equation 1

x + y = 4000

1.5y + y = 4000

2.5y = 4000

y = 4000/2.5

y = 1600 non fiction books

Solving for x

x = 1.5y

x = 1.5 × 1600

x = 2400 fiction books.

Therefore,

The number of

Fiction books = x = 2400 fiction books

Non fiction books = y = non fiction books

I still don’t understand can someone give a helping hand?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A, B, C, and D, are all functions. the " { " is saying that those functions can are different at different points. For A the function is A= -x-2 when x< 2 and then A=x+4 when x\geq -2. At the point x=-2 you can see that the function on the graph is going in two different directions but it stops at x=-2.

Based on the graph you can see that the line on the left has a slope of -1 and if it kept going it would cross the y-axis at y=-2, therefore the equation for the first line is y =-x-2 when x

The second line on the right side has a slope of 1 and crosses the y-axis at y=4 so the equation for that line is y=x+4 when x\geq -2.

The only answer that matches these requirements is A

What is the volume in cubic centimeters of a right circular cone with radius 2 centimeters and height 9 centimeters?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

V = 37.7cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone is:

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h

Given:

- Radius = 2cm

- Height = 9cm

Let's plug these into the equation:

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi (2)^2(9)

Now solve:

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi (4)(9)\\V = \frac{1}{3}\pi 36\\V = \frac{36}{3}  \pi \\V = 12\pi \\V = 37.7cm^3

Therefore, the volume of the cone is 37.7cm^3.

<em>I hope this helps!!</em>

Solve for c.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
-58c=20     isolate variable with equal treatment using opposite operation
opposite of -58 x c is division, so divide both sides by -58
-58c/-58  = 20/-58 
-58 over -58 = 1 so
1c = 20/-58
c = -0.3448275    Round to nearest hundredth = -0.34
