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 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount left from x after paying t and 250 is ...

  x -t -250

If this is split into two equal parts, each share is ...

The function, f(x)=70n-400, models the profit of the instructor of a guitar class per month, where n is the number of students e
zimovet [89]

profit=f(x)

so solve for f(x)=1000

1000=70n-400

add 400 to both sides

1400=70n

divide both sides by 70

20=n

20 students need to be enrolled to make a profit of 1000.00

Expand and simplify (6x-2)^2<br>​
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

\sf 36x^2 -24x +4

solving step wise:

\sf (6x-2)^2

\sf (6x-2)(6x-2)

\sf 36x^2 -12x -12x +4

\sf 36x^2 -24x +4

or

\sf (6x-2)^2

\sf (6x)^2 +2*6x*-2+(-2)^2

36x^2 -24x +4
