Answer:

a =12*sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3. The Pythagorean theorem states

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

a^2 +21^2 = 27^2

a^2 +441 =729

Subtract 441 from each side

a^2 +441-441 = 729 -441

a^2 =288

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(288)

sqrt(xy) = sqrt(x)sqrt(y)

a = sqrt(144)sqrt(2)

a =12*sqrt(2)

Telephone plan consist of a monthly fee of $20 plus $.20 per minute for long distance calls made write an equation for the total

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$C=20+0.20N$

Step-by-step explanation:

Fixed monthly fee = $20

Amount charged per minute for long distance calls = $0.20

$C$ denotes total cost such that $N$ minutes are used for long distance calls.

Amount charged for $N$ minutes for long distance calls $=0.20N$

Therefore, an equation for the total cost, C, when N minutes are used for long distance calls is $C=20+0.20N$
