The difference of twelve times a number and nine times a number

Since the problem states "a number" and again "a number", I assume it;'s the same number. Let the number be x.

12x - 9x = 3x

The difference of twelve times a number and nine times a number is three times the number.

12x-9y

Difference means subtraction, so the difference between 12 <u>times a number</u> is known as 12x because we do not know what is being multiplied by 12. Same with 9 times a number. Since 12 and 9 have two numbers that we don't know the value of, we have to change one of them to a different variable because we do not know if it is the same number or not. So it would be 12x-9y, or any letters you choose.

The side lengths of a triangle are 9, 12, and 15. Is this a right triangle?
andriy [413]

Answer:

<h2>Yes, this is a right triangle.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse always have the highest number than base and perpendicular.

Hypotenuse ( h ) = 15

Base ( b ) = 9

Perpendicular ( p ) = 12

Let's see whether the given triangle is a right triangle or not

Using Pythagoras theorem:

{h}^{2}  =  {p}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}

Plugging the values,

{15}^{2}  =  {12}^{2}  +  {9}^{2}

Evaluate the power

225  = 144 + 81

Calculate the sum

225 = 225

Hypotenuse is equal to the sum of perpendicular and base.

So , we can say that the given lengths of the triangle makes a right triangle.

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!

The square root of 42. The answer needs to be simplified. The problem must be solved by using perfect squares. The answer can't
Rasek [7]
From what I can tell, this can't be simplified, because there are no factors of 42 that are perfect squares.  I would leave it as the square root of 42.

Write the standard equation of the circle with the given center that passes through the given point
Kitty [74]
Circle equation
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
Since radius isn't given use the center and point, with the distance formula, to find the radius.
D=sqrt((x2-x2)^2+)y2-y1)^2)
D=sqrt((1-0)^2+(2-6)^2
D=sqrt(1+16)
D=sqrt 17
radius = sqrt 17
(h, k) is the center and r is the radius
(x - 1)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 17
