we know that

In a right triangle we have

two legs and one hypotenuse

Let

a,b -----> the legs of the right triangle

c-----> the hypotenuse of the right triangle (the greater side)

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The length of the hypotenuse squared is the length of one leg squared plus the length of another leg squared

For f(x) = 0.02(2)^x find the average rate of change from x= 3 to x= 8
Fudgin [204]

None of the offered choices is correct.

f(3) = 0.02·2³ = 0.02·8 = 0.16

f(8) = 0.02·2⁸ = 0.02·256 = 5.12

Then the average rate of change is

... (f(8) - f(3))/(8 - 3) = (5.12 -0.16)/5 = 4.96/5 = 0.992

UNO [17]

Make each fraction have a like denominator

7/9 *  8/8= 56/ 72

7/8 * 9/9 = 63/72

18 + 14 + (56+63)/72

32 + 119/72

32 + 1 + 47/72

33 and 47/72

What is the least common denominator of the four fractions listed below 20 7/10, 20 3/4, 18 9/10, 20 18/25
Feliz [49]
So what you do is see all the denomenators and factor them (denomenaotrs are the bottom numbres)

10,4,10,25
10=2 times 5
4=2 times 2
10=2 times 5
25=5 times 5
we need to include all of them so we need at leas two 2's, and two 5's
2 times 2 times 5 times 5=100
leact common denomator is 100
