Phthagorean theorme is
a^2+b^2=c^2
where you have a right triangle and c =hypotonuse( normally the longest side, and opposite of right angle)
a and b are the legs

so we are given
one leg=8
hypotonues=10
subsitute
leg=a or b so just subsitute for one
subsitutt  for b
a^2+8^2=10^2
expand
8^2=64
10^2=100
a^2+64=100
subtract 64 from both sides
a^2=36
square root both sides
a=6
answe ris 6 feet

So it started at 180. After 4 more years it’s grown 188 cm to 368. If we estimate that it’ll grow 188 cm in another 4 years that puts our total to around 556. If we estimate and take off a year, it would probably be around 548 cm :)

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (7, 5)(7, 5) and (−4, −1)(−4, −1) ? y+4=116(
Alex Ar [27]
(7,5)(-4,-1)
slope = (-1-5) / (-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 6/11
(-4,-1)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -1
now we sub...pay close attention to ur signs
y - (-1) = 6/11(x - (-4) ...not done yet...
y + 1 = 6/11(x + 4) <===

Which expression shows the sum of the polynomials with like terms grouped together? 10x^2y+2xy^2-4x^2y
Molodets [167]
<span>first find the similar term, the similar term is x^2y.
10x^2y + 2xy^2- 4x^2y
group together the similar term and place them in a parenthesis
then perform the operation to simplify the expression.
= </span>(10x^2y<span><span> - 4x^2y ) </span>+ 2xy^2
= ( </span><span>6x^2y ) + </span><span>2xy^2
= </span><span>6x^2y </span><span><span>+ <span>2xy^2 is the sum of the polynomial</span></span> </span>
