Find the third side in simplest radical form:​

Mathematics
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The third side is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2

a^2 +225 = 289

Subtract 225 from each side

a^2 +225-225=289-225

a^2 = 64

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(64)

a= 8

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y-8=-0.2(x+10)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the table we have the points (-10, 8) and (10, 4). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{4-8}{10-(-10)}=\dfrac{-4}{20}=-\dfrac{1}{5}=-0.2

The equation of a line:

y-8=-0.2(x-(-10))\\\\y-8=-0.2(x+10)

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

Step-by-step explanation:

The concentration of H+ ions in the acid will be ...

10^(-2.4) ≈ 0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

The concentration of H+ ions in the base will be ...

10^-11.2 ≈ 0.000 000 000 006310 . . . . moles per liter

To a few decimal places, the difference is ...

0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

_____

The two numbers differ by about 9 orders of magnitude, so the value of the difference between the larger and the smaller is essentially the value of the larger number. The smaller one, by comparison, can be considered to be zero (for subtraction purposes).
