Answer:

You must draw a right triangle and label the hypotenuse as 41 and the longest leg (horizontal in this case, since we are to determine the height) as 40. We do not know the height so call it h.

Now the Pythagorean (sp /) Theorem states that the square of the hyp. is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs.

so, 41 ^ 2 = 40 ^ 2 + h ^ 2

41 ^ 2 = 1681   40 ^ 2 = 1600     Therefore h ^2 must be equal to 81.   This means that h = 9.

The height is 9 inches.

Arrange the circles (represented by their equations in general form) in ascending order of their radius lengths.
Elden [556K]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

We know that the standard form of a circle is given by the equation:

          (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where the center if the circle is at (h,k) and the radius of circle is: r

1)

x^2+y^2-2x+2y-1=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=(\sqrt{3})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:√3=1.732 units

2)

x^2+y^2-4x+4y-10=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x-2)^2+(y+2)^2=(\sqrt{18})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:3√2=4.242 units

3)

x^2+y^2-8x-6y-20=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2=(\sqrt{45})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:3√5=6.708 units

4)

4x^2+4y^2+16x+24y-40=0

on dividing both side by 4 we get:

x^2+y^2+4x+6y-10=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x+2)^2+(y+3)^2=(\sqrt{23})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:\sqrt{23}=4.796 units

5)

5x^2+5y^2-20x+30y+40=0

on dividing both side by 5 we get:

x^2+y^2-4x+6y+8=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x-2)^2+(y+3)^2=(\sqrt{5})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:√5=2.236 units

6)

2x^2+2y^2-28x-32y-8 = 0

on dividing both side by 2 we get:

x^2+y^2-14x+16y-4=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x-7)^2+(y+8)^2=(\sqrt{117})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:√117=10.817 units

7)

x^2+y^2+12x-2y-9=0

on converting to standard form of equation we get:

(x+6)^2+(y-1)^2=(\sqrt46})^2

Hence, the radius of circle is:√46=6.782 units

On arranging the circle in ascending order of their radius is:

    1) → 5) → 2) → 4) → 3) → 7) → 6)

A baker bakes a batch of muffins and splits the batch evenly into six different trays. She then adds five croissants to each tra
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Original batch had 90 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

m= muffins in original batch

So, each tray has m/6 muffins and 5 croissants, which totals m/6+5. The value must be at least 20, so we have this inequality:

m/6+5 is greater than or equal to 20. We multiple each side by 6 and get:

m is greater than or equal to 90 muffins.
