Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Marina burns calories at a rate of 15 calories per minute when running.

Let she runs for r minutes.

Therefore, number of calories burnt in r minutes running = 15r calories

Now it is given that she exercises for 60 minutes, in which she runs for r minutes so remaining time for walking will be = (60 - r) minutes

Calories burnt in walking is given as 6 calories per minute

Therefore, calories burnt in (60 - r) minutes walking= 6(60 - r) calories.

Finally total calories burnt in exercising for 60 minutes will be represented by [60r + 6(60 - r)] calories.

15r means that she burns 15 calories per min, for as many mins as she ran.  EG: if she ran for 10 min, then she burned 150 cals.  The other one I'm not so sure.

HELP ME PLEASE!!! I DON'T UNDERSTAND!
Rama09 [41]

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a right angled triangle so you use the pythagorean theory

which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

you have c and b already. c is the hypotenuse.

a^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

a^2 + 256 = 400

a^2 = 400 - 256

a^2 = 144

then you square root 144 and get..

a = 12

The longer leg of a right triangle is 4cm longer than the shorter leg. the hypotenuse is 8cm longer than the shorter leg. find t
Alexeev081 [22]
Longer leg = x + 4

Shorter leg = x

Hypotenuse = x + 8


Using Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x + 4)^2 + x^2 = (x + 8)^2

x^2 + 8x + 16 + x^2 = x^2 + 16x + 64

2x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 16x + 64

2x^2 +8x = x^2 + 16x + 48

2x^2 - 8x = x^2 + 48

x^2 - 8x = 48

x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0

You can complete the square from here or use the quadratic formula.

Completing the square:

x^2 - 8x = 48

x^2 - 8x + (-8/2)^2 = 48 + (-8/2)^2

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 48 + 16

(x - 4)(x - 4) = 64 or (x - 4)^2 = 64

x - 4 = +√64 OR x - 4 = -√64

x - 4 = +8 OR x - 4 = -8

x = 12 OR x = -4

However, you can't use negative 4 as a length because your length needs to be a positive.

So x will be 12.


Shorter leg: 12

Longer leg: 12 + 4

Hypotenuse: 12 + 8
