Jack and Andrea want to create a right triangle together using values of x and y and the polynomial identity to generate Pythago

rean triples. If Andrea picks a value of x = 2, and the hypotenuse of the resulting right triangle is 5, what natural number value of y did Jack pick? y = 1 y = 2 y = 3 y = 4

A right triangle can be considered as a special type because the relationship of its sides can be described using the hypotenuse formula:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

or

c^2 = x^2 + y^2

where,

c is the hypotenuse of the triangle and is the side opposite to the 90° angle

while a and b are the sides adjacent to the 90° angle

 

In the problem statement, we are given that one of the side has a measure of 2 = x, while the hypotenuse is 5 = c, therefore calculating for y:

y^2 = c^2 – x^2

y^2 = 5^2 – 2^2

y^2 = 21

y = 4.58

 

The natural number is the number before the decimal. Therefore the answer is:

y = 4

Which equation does the graph represent?
Art [367]

Answer:

It is the second answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an ellipse is

x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2  or x^2/b^2 + y^2/a^2 = 1

If the x is the main axis we use the first form.  If the y is the main axis we use the second form.  We will use the second form.

our a is 3 and our b is 4

x^2/3^2 + y^2/4^2

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

3/6 or 1/2 (50%)

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 6 containers of each flavor, correct?

If you pick 3 of the same flavor, 3/6, it would look like that fraction.

If you simplify it, It'd be 1/2.

If you want it as a percent, It'd be 50%.

As a decimal, It's .50.
