The longest side of an acute triangle measures 30 inches. The two remaining sides are congruent, but their length is

Answer:

(C)72.4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an acute triangle in which the longest side measures 30 inches; and the other two sides are congruent.

Consider the attached diagram

AB=BC=x

However to be able to solve for x, we form a right triangle with endpoints A and C.

Since the hypotenuse is always the longest side in a right triangle

Hypotenuse, AC=30 Inches

Using Pythagoras Theorem

30^2=x^2+x^2\\900=2x^2\\x^2=450\\x=\sqrt{450}\\x=21.21$ inches

Therefore, the smallest possible perimeter of the triangle

Perimeter=2x+30

=2(21.21)+30

=42.42+30

=72.4 Inches (rounded to the nearest tenth)

The exponential function, f(x)=2^x, undergoes two transformations to g(x)=3x2^x+5. How does the graph change? Select all that ap
Shalnov [3]

Answer: Options A and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

 The parent exponential function has the form:

f(x)=b^x

This can be transformated as following:

When you multiply the function by a factor <em>a</em> (a*f(x))<em> </em>and <em>a>0 </em>, then the function is  vertically stretched.

When you add a number <em>k</em> to the parent function, the function is shifted up (f(x)+k)

The parent function given in the problem is:

f(x)=2^x

To obtain the function g(x)=3*2^x+5, the parent function is multiplied by a factor 3 (which is greater than 0) and the number 5 is added.

Therefore, the graph is shifted up and vertically stretched.

Answer:

AECG

Step-by-step explanation:

1

sqrt(49) = 7

sqrt(a^2) = a

sqrt(b^2) = b

For every two variables you can take one out from under the root sign and thorough the other one away.

Answer: E

2

sqrt(36) = 6

sqrt(a^2) = a  See comment for 1.

b must be left where it is. There is only 1 of them.

6asqrt(b)

Answer: A

3. sqrt(25) = 5

sqrt(b^2) = b

a must be left alone.  There's only 1 of them.

5b sqrt(a)

answer: C

4

sqrt(81 a b)

sqrt(81) = 9

The variables must be left alone. There's only1 of them

9 sqrt(ab)

Geri ran in a marathon race. It took her 3 hours and 28 minutes to run 26 miles. How many minutes did it take her to run 1 mile
nadya68 [22]

1 hour = 60 minutes, so 3 hours = 3 * 60 = 180 minutes.

Her total time was 3 hours and 28 minutes, so 180 + 28 = 208 minutes.

Divide her total time by total miles run:

208 minutes / 26 miles = 8 minutes per mile.
