Answer: 10.4

explanation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
plug in 3 for a and 10 for b
3^2 + 10^2 =c^2
simplify to get
109 =c^2
take the square root of both sides
c = sqrt109 or 10.44030651

Answer:

c<u> </u><u>(</u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>hypotenuse</u><u>)</u><u> = 10.4 units</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Start off by rearranging the original pythangorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) by taking the square root of both sides so it is in the form of a distance formula solving for c(the hypotenuse).

c^2 will become |c| as length cannot be negative so (labeling an absolute value is negligible)

a^2+b^2 = c^2

c^2 = a^2+b^2

√(c^2) = √(a^2+b^2)

<em>c = √(a^2+b^2)</em>

Then substitute the given lengths, in this scenario, sides a and b.

After you substitute, just simplify.

c = √(3^2+10^2) = √(9+100) = √109 ≈ 10.4 units (nearest tenth)

Which represents the polynomial below written in standard form?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

B. 4x^3}+\frac{x^2}{2}-3x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial is \frac{x^2}{2}-3x+4x^3}+6

To write in Standard form, the greatest exponent goes first, down to the least.

The greatest exponent is 3, so 4x^3 goes first.

4x^3}+\frac{x^2}{2}-3x+6 is what you end up with

4. You sketch a right triangle that has a
stich3 [128]

Answer:

√95 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, you need to use the pythagorean theorem, or a^2 + b^2 = c^2

The hypotenuse is the c and let one leg be b. You can write:

a^2 + 7^2 = 12^2

a^2 + 49 = 144

Now, you need to solve for a:

a^2 = 144 - 49

a^2 = 95

a = √95 cm, or about 9.75cm
