Answer:
<em>a</em> = -10 and <em>b</em> = 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>w</em> represent the width of the rectangle.
We are given that the perimeter of the rectangle is 20 cm, this means that:
Let's put <em>w</em> in terms of <em>x</em>. Divide both sides by two:
And solve for <em>w:</em>
<em />
<em />
So, the rectangle measures <em>x</em> by (10 -<em> x</em>) cm.
<em />
According to the Pythagorean Theorem:
<em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the legs and <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse.
Substitute <em>x</em> for <em>a, w</em> for <em>b</em>, and 8 for <em>c:</em>
<em />
<em />
Simplify and substitute:
Square:
Isolate the equation. So:
Since the leading coefficient is one, divide both sides by two:
Therefore, <em>a</em> = -10 and <em>b</em> = 18.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest way to simplify the expression below is using a property: if we take random non-0 number to the 0 power, we finally get 1, so 
Answer:
a= 6
b = 7
c = 8
d = 7
e = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the bike is 6 feet above the ground to start with, so when it starts rolling, the green dot is exactly 6 feet from the ground, which gives a=6
when the distance covered by the bike is 
, (see first red dot in the attached image), the position of the green dot is exactly 1 foot added to 6 ft= 7 feet
so b = 7
when the distance covered is 
, now the green dot would be at the top of the wheel (second red dot in the attached image) which involves adding 2 feet to the original 6 feet. That is: c = 8
when the distance covered is 
, the green dot is at the position of the third red dot in the attached image., that it exactly one foot added to 6 feet = 7 ft which gives the value of d = 7
and finally, when the distance covered is 
. the green dot has completed a full circle and is now again in its lower position (nothing - zero) added to 6 feet = 6ft, giving e = 6.
