Hi there! :)
<u>Answer:</u>
Subtract 43 from 20 raised to the 7th power; then multiply by 3. The answer is: <u>3,839,999,871</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
"Subtract" means to take away a number from another.
" 20 raised to the 7th power" is the same thing as 20 exponent 7:
SO, you want to take away 43 from and then multiply the answer by 3:
( - 43) × 3
1,280,000,000
(1,280,000,000 - 43) × 3
1,280,000,000 - 43 = 1,279,999,957
1,279,999,957 × 3
1,279,999,957 × 3 = <u>3,839,999,871</u>
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
The length of the shorter leg is 14 inches.
We will set up two equations for this; first, for the perimeter. We will call the legs a and b:
a + b + 50 = 112
Subtract 50 from both sides:
a + b + 50 - 50 = 112 - 50
a + b = 62
We will isolate a, so we can use substitution. Subtract b from both sides:
a + b - b = 62 - b
a = 62 - b
Now we will set up our Pythagorean theorem equation:
a² + b² = 50²
a² + b² = 2500
We will substitute our value for a from the first equation into this one:
(62-b)² + b² = 2500
(62 - b)(62 - b) + b² = 2500
Multiplying the binomials, we have:
62*62 - b*62 - b*62 -b(-b) + b² = 2500
3844 - 62b - 62b + b² + b² = 2500
Combining like terms:
3844 - 124b + 2b² = 2500
To set it equal to 0 and solve, we subtract 2500 from both sides:
3844 - 124b + 2b² - 2500 = 2500 - 2500
1344 - 124b + 2b² = 0
In standard form, we have
2b² - 124b + 1344 = 0
Using the quadratic formula,
The shorter leg is 14 and the longer one is 48.
