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.

300 ml of pure alcohol is poured from a bottle containing 2 l of pure alcohol. Then, 300 ml of water is added into the bottle. A
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The present percentage of pure alcohol in the solution is 72.25% of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of pure alcohol poured from the 2 l bottle of pure alcohol = 300 ml of pure alcohol

The volume of water added into the bottle after pouring out the pure alcohol = 300 ml of water

The volume of diluted alcohol poured out of the bottle = 300 ml of diluted alcohol

The volume of water added into the bottle of diluted alcohol after pouring out the 300 ml of diluted alcohol = 300 ml of water

Step 1

After pouring the 300 ml of pure alcohol and adding 300 ml of water to the bottle, the percentage concentration, C%₁ is given as follows;

C%₁ = (Volume of pure alcohol)/(Total volume of the solution) × 100

The volume of pure alcohol in the bottle = 2 l - 300 ml = 1,700 ml

The total volume of the solution = The volume of pure alcohol in the bottle +  The volume of water added = 1,700 ml + 300 ml = 2,000 ml = 2 l

∴ C%₁ = (1,700 ml)/(2,000 ml) × 100 = 85% percent alcohol

Step 2

After pouring out 300 ml diluted alcohol from the 2,000 ml, 85% alcohol and adding 300 ml of water, we have;

Volume of 85% alcohol = 2,000 ml - 300 ml = 1,700 ml

The volume of pure alcohol in the 1,700 ml, 85% diluted alcohol = 85/100 × 1,700 = 1,445 ml

The total volume of the diluted solution = The volume of the 85% alcohol in the solution + The volume of water added

∴ The total volume of the twice diluted solution = 1,700 ml + 300 ml = 2,000 ml

The present percentage of pure alcohol in the solution, C%₂ = (The volume of pure alcohol in the 1,700 ml, 85% diluted alcohol)/(The total volume of the diluted solution) × 100

∴ C%₂ = (1,445 ml)/(2,000 ml) × 100 = 72.25 %

The present percentage of pure alcohol in the solution, C%₂ = 72.25%

Given f(x) = 2x – 3, find the x value such that f(x) = 8.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer: 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Plugging it into the formula, we get

2x-3 = 8

Add 3 to both sides:

2x = 11

Divide by 2 on both sides:

x = 5.5

Which sentence contains an inappropriate shift in tense?
Montano1993 [528]
C. Hummingbirds are hovering over the geraniums while caterpillars munched leaves.

This is because the tense of the hummingbirds is in the "ing" form, while the tense of the caterpillars is in past tense, or the "ed" form.  Because these tenses do not agree, it is an inappropriate shift in verb tense.
