If you plug the values for a, b, and c into the Pythagorean Theorem, you can get x alone to figure out the side lengths:
x² + 3x² - 1² = 3x² + 1²
Combine like terms
4x² - 1² = 3x² + 1²
Subtract 3x² from both sides
x² - 1² = 1²
Simplify 1²
x² - 1 = 1
Add 1 to both sides
x² = 2
Square root both sides
x = 1.41421
Then, simply plug in that number for x on each side! It comes out to a weird number, but I don't see any other way to solve it...
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
D - No, the ordered pair (4,9) is a solution to this problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plotted the number of snacks as the x-axis, and then the total cost of the snacks on the y-axis, you would be able to graph a line and see the cost of snacks based on the number purchased. If you were going to write an equation for this, it would be y=2.25x (or y = 2 1/4 x)
In this case, as each snack is the same price, the y-values for each x would be as such: (1, 2.25) <- one snack, $2.25;
(2, 4.5)
(3, 6.75)
(4, 9)
So that is why the ordered pair of (4,9) would be a solution to this problem.
Hope that makes sense!
