What is the value of x in the triangle?

Mathematics
1 answer:
yulyashka [42]3 years ago
4 0
<h3>Answer: C) x = 13</h3>

====================================================

Work Shown:

We have a right triangle with legs a = 5 and b = 12. The hypotenuse is c = x which is unknown for now.

Use the pythagorean theorem to find x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 12^2 = x^2

25 + 144 = x^2

169 = x^2

x^2 = 169

x = sqrt(169)  .... apply the square root to both sides

x = 13

Jennifer is twice as old as laurel, who is 4 years younger than nana. If nana is two years younger than Jennifer what is nana’s
shutvik [7]

Nana's age: 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we call:

J = Jennifer's age

L = Laurel's age

N = Nana's age

We have the following information:

- Jennifer is twice as old as laurel, so

J = 2L (1)

- Laurel is 4 years younger than Nana, so

L = N - 4 (2)

- Nana is 2 years younger than Jennifer, so

N = J -2 (3)

Substituting (2) into (1),

J = 2(N-4) = 2N - 8

And substituting this into (3) and solving for J, we find Nana's age:

N = (2N-8) - 2

N = 2N - 10

N = 10

Which means that Jennifer's age is:

J =  N + 2 = 12

And Laurel's age is

L = J/2 = 6

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line shown.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form: y = mx + b

y-intercept(when x= 0) is given by b

slope is given by m

lets find the slope using the two given points, (4,1) and (8,4)

m = y2-y1 / x2-x1

m = 4 - 1 / 8 - 4

m = 3/4

Now use any of the given points to begin writing your equation, which will help you find the y intercept - ill use (4,1).

1 = 3/4(4) - b

1 = 3 - b

b = -2

now you have m and b so you can finish writing your equation.

y = mx + b

y = 3/4x - 2
