Answer:

The length of the unknown side is 10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In this problem we have an isosceles right triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

where

c is the hypotenuse (unknown side)

a and b are the legs

we have

$a=7\ m\\b=7\ m$

substitute

$c^2=7^2+7^2$

$c^2=(2)7^2$

$c=7\sqrt{2}\ m$

$c=9.9\ m$

Round to the nearest whole number

$c=10\ m$

therefore

The length of the unknown side is 10 meters

I’m in Algebra 2 and we’re currently on the subject of “Solving Absolute Value Equations” and I’m having trouble with this equat

saw5 [17]

let's bear in mind that an absolute value expression is in effect a piece-wise expression, namely it has a ± versions of the same expression.

$\bf 5|3x-4| = x+1\implies |3x-4|=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies \begin{cases} +(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\\[1em] -(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ +(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies 3x-4=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies 15x-20=x+1 \\\\\\ 14x-20=1\implies 14x=21\implies x = \cfrac{21}{14}\implies \boxed{x=\cfrac{3}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ -(3x-4)=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies -3x+4=\cfrac{x+1}{5}\implies -15x+20=x+1 \\\\\\ 20=16x+1\implies 19=16x\implies \boxed{\cfrac{19}{16}=x}$

a car travels along the highway to yuma at steady speed. when it begins, it is 400 miles from yuma. After 7 hours, it is 59 mile

klemol [59]

Answer:

y= -50x + 400

Step-by-step explanation:

-50 miles from the place which means they are going further and further away so it is negative. And its 400 because y=mx+b the b is 400 because thats where they started. Also it said it was correct on A-p-e-x.

Find a recurrence relation for the amount of money in a savings account after n years if the interest rate is 6 percent and $50

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$a_n = a_{n-1} (1.06) + 50$

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, $a_0$ is initial amount in the saving account,

Here, the annual interest rate is 6% and additional amount in each year is $ 50,

So, the amount after one year,

$a_1 = a_0 + 6\%\text{ of }a_0 + 50 = a_0 + 0.06a_0 + 50 = a_0(1.06) + 50$

Amount after 2 years,

$a_2 = a_1 + 6\%\text{ of }a_1 + 50 = a_1(1.06) + 50$

Amount after 3 years,

$a_3 = a_2 + 6\%\text{ of }a_2 + 50 = a_2(1.06) + 50$

................................., so on....

Hence, by following the pattern,

The amount after n years,

$a_n = a_{n-1} (1.06) + 50$

Which is the required recurrence relation for the amount of money in a savings account

Solve for r 1/2r-3=3(4-3/2

devlian [24]

1/2r - 3 = 3(4-3/2) -----> Simplify the right side.
1/2r - 3 = 3(1/2) -----> Multiply
1/2r - 3 = 3/2 ----> Add 3 to both sides
1/2r = 6/2 + 3/2
1/2r = 9/2 -----> Divide both sides by 1/2 which is the same as multiplying my 2
r = 18/2
r = 9
Hope this helps!
