ABC has side lenths 20, 24, and 31. Do the side lenghts form a Pythagorean triple?

No they don't.
Phythagorean triple is when the sum of the squares of two numbers is equal to the square of another number.

20^2 + 24^2 = 400 + 576 = 976
31^2 = 961

20^2 + 24^2 should have been equal to 31^2 but that's not the case. So, the side's length don't form a triple.

Hope it helped!

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The easiest ways to do this is to add, subtract, multiply, or devide 5 from a number, do that operation to x, and set that number as the equivelent.

For example

3 * 5=15

so

3x=15

Adele is 5 years older than Timothy. In three years, Timothy will be  of Adele’s age. What is Adele’s current age?
Doss [256]

Answer:

Adele's current age is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = Adele's current age

Let t = Timothy's current age

Adele is 5 years older than Timothy:

a = t + 5       {equation 1}

In 3 years Timothy will be 2/3 of Adele's age:

(2/3)(a + 3) = t + 3     {equation 2}

Since we are looking for Adele's age, let's rearrange equation 1 to:

t = a - 5

Substitute that into equation 2 and solve for a.

(2/3)(a+3) = a - 5 + 3

(2/3)(a + 3) = a - 2

Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

2(a+3) = 3a - 6

2a + 6 = 3a - 6

Add 6 to both sides, subtract 2a from both sides

12 = a

Adele is 12 years old

This means Timothy is 7 years old.

Check equation 2 to verify:

(2/3)(a + 3) = t + 3

(2/3)(12+3) = 7 + 3

(2/3)(15) = 10

10 = 10
