Do the side lengths of 5, 6, and 8 form a Pythagorean triple?

The Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2

So we must check if:
5^2 + 6^2 = 8^2

25 + 36 ? 64
61 =/= 64

The side lengths 5, 6, and 8 do not form a Pythagorean triple.

Identify the maximum of the graph below. Type your answer by filling in the blanks below
nevsk [136]

Answer:

The maximum point of this function is (5,4).

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum of a function is the maximum value that it can take.

Seeing the graph we can say that the maximum value of y occurs at x = 4. Here y = 5 corresponds to this value of x.

Therefore, the maximum point of this function is (5,4).

I hope it helps you!

What is the exact value of tangent (negative StartFraction pi Over 3 EndFraction)
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

tan(-π/3) =  -1.732050808

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question, we have to find the value of tan(-pi/3) or it can be written as:

x = tan(-\frac{\pi}{3})

where x is the exact value of the given tangent.

However, in this question, one may get confused and put the value of π = 3.14, which is wrong. The value given is in radians, which is used to measure angles, just like degrees.

To make it easier, lets convert the radians into degrees. We know that

π = 180°

-π/3 = -180/3 = -60°

Find x:

x = tan (-60°)

x = -1.732050808

Silvia was growing some plants. She measured the height, in inches, of the plants and made thisline plot to show her data:
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalents to 1/4 are 2/8, 3/12, 4/16 etc. So the fractions after 1/4 are higher than 1/4. Then you count how many 'x's are in the columns for those measurements and you will get 6.
