The numbers they are looking for are numbers that are simple but made up. For example, start with 0. Plug 0 in for x, so the corresponding value of y is 10. For a second value, you could do 2. When x=2, y=11, etc. So essentially, put in some simple numbers for x, and solve for y. :)
Answer:
12;16
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem states that
a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are legs of a triangle, and c is the hypotenuse.
This means that we have to find 2 values that once squared, add up to 400. (20^2)
Based on this, we can use the values of 12 and 16 to satisfy this.
12^2+16^2=144*256=400
Therefore, the legs of the triangle are 12 and 16.
Gabby has a goal to finish covering the field before 12 hours have
elapsed.
Explain why Gabby will be able to meet her goal by working at this rate. As
part of the explanation, determine the amount of time, in hours, Gabby
will have to water the field.
Answer: x = -9/ addition property of equality
Explanation: In this problem, we're given that x - 7 = -16 and we're asked to solve the equation and explain which equality we used.
The first statement we have will be
the given statement which is x - 7 = -16.
Now, we just solve the equation.
Our first and only step will be to add 7 to both sides.
Then, we find that x = -9.
The property we used here was the addition property of equality.
This property tells us that we can add the same quantity,
or equal quantities, to both sides of an equation.
