one leg of a right triangle is 6.4 cm long the length of the second leg is 3.5 cm what is the length of the hypotenuse rounded t

o the nearest tenth if necessary
Mathematics

Valentin [98]3 years ago

Answer:

7.3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the hypotenuse, we just need to use the Pythagorean Theorem.

Remember, that this theorem only works for right triangles.

This theorem states that a^2+b^2=c^2

This is where a and b are legs of the triange, and c is the hypotenuse.

Knowing this, we can plug our values in.

6.4^2+3.5^2=c^2

Simplify.

41.344+12.25=c^2

53.594=c^2

Root both sides.

c=7.32 (about)

Round that to tenths.

c=7.3

Use the box method to distribute and simplify (-5x-2)(-2x^2+6x).
Mkey [24]

Answer:

10x^{3} - 26x^{2} - 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  Use the FOIL method: (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd.

10x^{3} - 30x^{2} + 4x^{2} -12x

2)  Collect like terms.

10x^{3} + (-30x^{2} +4x^{2} )-12x

3) Simplify.

10x^{3} - 26x^{2} -12x

Therefor, the answer is, 10x^3 - 26x^2 - 12x.

Anastasy [175]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The yield from 3/4 cup of sugar is 2 dozen cookies. Multiply that by 5 and you get: the yield from 15/4 cups of sugar is 10 dozen cookies.

As a mixed number 15/4 = 3 3/4.

Ana will need 3 3/4 cups of sugar for 10 dozen cookies.

Find the discriminant and the number of real roots for this equation.
Margaret [11]

Our discriminant is 0 so, 4x^2 + 12x + 9 = 0 has one real root.

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find the discriminant and the number of real roots for the following equation:

4x^2 + 12x + 9 = 0

The discriminant is found by using square root part of quadratic formula:

b^2-4ac

where b =12, a=4 and c=9

Putting values:

=b^2-4ac\\=(12)^2-4(4)(9)\\=144-144\\=0

To find out the number of real roots using discriminant we have following rules:

  • if discriminant b^2-4ac >0 then 2 real roots
  • if discriminant b^2-4ac =0 then 1 real root
  • if discriminant b^2-4ac <0 then no real roots

Since our discriminant b^2-4ac is 0 so, 4x^2 + 12x + 9 = 0 has one real root.

Option C is correct.
