Answer:

1.  C) 2/5 or 4.47   if 2/5 means 2 sqrt(5)

2. sqrt(68)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  using the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a = distance AB = 4   b = BC = 2   and c = AC = ?

4^2 + 2^2 = c^2

16 + 4 = c^2

20 = c^2

take the square root of each side

sqrt(20) = c

sqrt(4) * sqrt(5) = c

2sqrt(5) = c


2.  using the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a = distance AC = 8   b = BC = 2   and c = AB = ?

8^2 + 2^2 = c^2

64 + 4 = c^2

68 = c^2

take the square root of each side

sqrt(68) = c

sqrt(4) * sqrt(17) = c

2sqrt(17) = c

did you forget to put the square root of B

Hi There!

-------------------------------------------

Pythagorean Thereom: c = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}

-------------------------------------------

Question 1:

a and b = both legs.

c = hypotenuse (AC)

c = \sqrt{2^2 + 4^2}

c = \sqrt{4 + 16}

c = \sqrt{20}

c ≈ 4.47

Answer: C) 2/5 or 4.47

-------------------------------------------

Question 2:

a and b = both legs.

c = hypotenuse (AB)

c = \sqrt{2^2 + 8^2}

c = \sqrt{4 + 64}

c = \sqrt{68}

c ≈ 8.25

Answer: C) 9 units

-------------------------------------------

Hope This Helps :)

Please hurry; Which function increases the fastest? A. y 5 14x B. y 5 23 · 17x C. y 5 120x D. y 5 2275x^x
Maurinko [17]

Answer: y = 14^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the options are:

a y = 14^x

b y = -3*(17)^x

c y = 120x

d y = -275x

to see which function increases the fastest (or which function is steeper) we need to look at the first derivations of each one of these, and see which one is larger for every value of x:

the derivations are:

a y = x*14^(x - 1)

b y = -x*3*(17)^(x  - 1)

c y = 120

d y = -275

So we can already discard options c and d, because have constant rate of change.

Then we keep options a and b.

Always when we have an exponential function, like a^x and b^x

The one with the larger base will be steeper.

So if a > b, then:

a^x is steeper than b^x

In this case, the function:

y = -3*(17)^x

has a larger base, but, this function is negative.

This means that as x increases, our function will decrease, then this function will not "increase the fastest" (because it does not increase)

Then the left option (a: y = 14^x)

Will be the correct one.

(this will happen after some value of x, because two of the options have constant derivatives, these may be steeper for smaller values of x, and as x increases, we will see that y = 14^x is the one that increases the fastest)

7(x-2)=28 Can somebody help me and show the steps?
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Since the 7 is in front of the parentheses you must multiply it by everything inside the parentheses. 7 times X is 7X and 7 times -2 is -14. Then you need to make the X be by itself on one side, to do that you have to add 14 to -14 to make it disappear, and also add 14 to the other side, to 28. Then you divide both sides by 7 to make X be by itself.

7(x-2)=28
7X-14=28
7x=42
X=6
