Tess created a Pythagorean triple of (24, 32, 40) by multiplying the known Pythagorean triple 3, 4, and 5 by 8. Is Tess correct?

Can a Pythagorean triple be created using multiplies of a known Pythagorean triple. Yes, as long as each number in the Pythagorean triple is multiplied by the same whole number. Yes, as long as each number in the Pythagorean triple is multiplied by a different whole number. No, Pythagorean triples only exist with small numbers. No, multiplying a known Pythagorean triple by a whole number will not create a Pythagorean triple.

Answer:

(24, 32, 40) is a Pythagorean triplet.

Option A) Yes, as long as each number in the Pythagorean triple is multiplied by the same whole number.                

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Pythagorean triplet: (3,4,5)

New Pythagorean triplet obtained = (24, 32, 40)

Pythagoras theorem:

For a right angles triangle the sum of square of sides of triangle is equal to the square of hypotenuse of triangle.

Verification:

24^2 + 32^2\\=576 + 1024\\=1600\\=40^2

Yes, Tessa is correct.

(24, 32, 40) is a Pythagorean triplet.

Pythagorean triple be created using multiplies of a known Pythagorean triple

Option A) Yes, as long as each number in the Pythagorean triple is multiplied by the same whole number.

(10 points) <br> Solve for x. Assume that the lines which appear to be tangent are tangent
Ganezh [65]

The two tangent lines for each circle are the same length. Set the equations to equal and solve for x.

1. 4x + 3 = 3x +12

Subtract 3x from each side:

x +3 = 12

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x = 9

2. -2 + x = 2x -7

Subtract 2x from both sides:

-2 - x =  -7

Add 2 to each side:

-x = -5

Multiply both sides by -1:

x = 5

Given: ⅓ (18x + 27) = 81 Prove: x = 12
sasho [114]

Answer:

Firstly, rewrite the equation:

⅓ (18 + 27) = 81

Substitute x for the given number of it's supposed equivalent.

In this case x = 12.

⅓ (18(12) + 27) = 81

Solve using PEMDAS and simplify what is in the parenthesis first. Then, multiply.

(18 x 12) + 27 = 243

Now, solving using PEMDAS, multiply the total of what you got that was originally in the parenthesis by ⅓ .

⅓ (243) = 81

When you multiple these number they are equivalent to 81.

81 = 81

Since the equation given, when substituted x for 12, is equivalent to 81, this proves that substituting x for 12 makes this equation true.

Karen had 15 snicker bars. she gave 7 to her brother. what percent did she give away
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to get this is that you put them in fraction form 7/15 and then you make it equal to to x/100 and then divide the known part of the fraction which in this case is 100/15 which gives 6.67 (rounded). After you get that you multiply it by 7 which give you 46.69%
