Answer: The length AC equals 10.25 cm (approximately)

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the diagram attached for further details.

The triangle has been constructed according to the dimensions provided with the top B going down to the "little square inside the triangle" which is C. This clearly identifies it as a right angled triangle. The point B meets with point C at the right angle and A is the sharp tip of the triangle, which makes point A the third angle. Hence we now have a right angled triangle with side AB measuring 11 cm, side BC measuring 4 cm and side AC is unknown.

We can now apply the Pythagoras' theorem which is stated as follows;

AC² = BC² + AB²

Where AC is the hypotenuse (longest side) and BC and AB are the other two sides. We can now substitute for the appropriate sides in this question as all the sides have been labelled differently. Hence,

BA² = BC² + CA²

11² = 4² + CA²

121 = 16 + CA²

Subtract 16 from both sides of the equation

105 = CA²

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

√105 = √CA²

10.2469 = CA

CA ≈ 10.25 cm

The third side AC (or CA) measures approximately 10.25 cm

You randomly draw a marble from a bag of marbles that contains 7 blue marbles, 2 green marbles, and 1 red
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

0.3 chance of not drawing a blue marble.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be found using the theoretical probability formula.

The formula is: P (desired outcome) = <u># of desired outcomes</u>

                                                             total number of outcomes

Now all you have to do is input the numbers into the equation.

P(not drawing a blue marble) = <u>3</u>

                                                  10

3/10 is equal to 0.3 as a decimal.

16. Solve the system of equations by graphing.<br> y = x + 8<br> y = - x- 6
Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 8 = -x - 6

2x + 8 = -6

2x = -14

x = -7

y = -7 + 8

y = 1

(-7, 1)

The manufacturer of a weight-training bench spends $15 to build each bench and sells them for $32. The manufacturer also has fix
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 15x + 25,500....cost function

R(x) = 32x .....revenue function

break even point (when they are equal)....so set them equal and solve for x

15x + 25,500 = 32x

25,500 = 32x - 15x

25,500 = 17x

25,500 / 17 = x

1500 = x.......so the break even point is when 1500 benches are sold

15x + 25,500 =                                   32x =

15(1500) + 25,500                              32(1500) =

22,500 + 25,500                                48,000

48,000

and after selling 1500 benches, they will both equal $48,000

How do you do inequalities
fgiga [73]
So some quick tips for inequalities:
**What you do to one side you HAVE TO do it to the other 2**
**If you ever divide a negative number past the inequality signs, the signs FLIP!!**
(e.g. 2>-5x>25)
-2/5 <x < -5

I hope that this has helped!
