Answer:
SteLet a = short leg of the right triangle, b = the longer leg, and c = the hypotenuse.
The longer leg of a right triangle is 4inches longer than the shorter leg: b = a + 4
The hypotenuse is 8inches longer than the shorter leg: c = a + 8
Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a2 + b2 = c2
a2 + (a+4)2 = (a+8)2
a2 + a2 + 8a + 16 = a2 + 16a + 64
a2 - 8a - 48 = 0
Factors to:
(a-12)(a+4) = 0
a = 12, -4
Since we can't have a side of -4, a = 12
Shorter Leg = 12 inches
Longer Leg = 12 + 4 = 16 inches
Hypotenuse = 12 + 8 = 20 inches
Answer:
y= 7x+ 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Important: Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation:
<span>"f(x) =x^2 to the number of x-intercepts in the graph of g(x) = x^2 +2."
Notes: the graph of f(x) = x^2 is a vertical parabola that opens up. It has its vertex at (0,0). This is the only point at which f(x)=x^2 has a horiz. intercept.
g(x) = x^2 + 2 has a graph that looks the same as that of f(x) = x^2, EXCEPT that the whole graph is moved 2 units UP. This new graph never touches or intersects the x-axis. Therefore, g(x) has NO horiz. intercepts (no x-int.).

Answer:
29.6 - 0.2 = 29.4
29.4 divided by 24 = 1.225 km
multiply the bottom then divide by the top
