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)

A line has a slope of -2/3 and passes through the point (-3,8). What is the equation of the line?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll use the standard equation y=mx+b to solve this problem. m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.

We know the slope, but we have to solve for the y intercept. To do this (I mean solve for 'b'), we need to know the slope, x value, and y value. We know the slope (-2/3), x= -3, and y=8. Let's plug this into y=mx+b and solve for b.

y=mx+b\\8=-\frac{2}{3}*-3 +b\\8=2+b\\b=8-2\\b=6

Let's plug all of this back into the first equation y=mx+b.

y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+6

That's the answer to this problem.

I hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you add them together which gives you infinity and then you divide infinity by (139+285) then keep doing it until you realise this is a scam

In this activity, you will help Darin compare the unit prices, in price per pound, of clementines and navel oranges. Clementines
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The table gives the cost for the number of three-pound bags of clementines. you need to change the number of bags to pounds to be able to get the data for the clementines in units of pounds and cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

each of the bags are three pounds each so 1 bag times 3, 2bags times 3, and then 3bags times 3, hope this answers your question.

How would I graph a line that contains the point (6,5) and has a slope of - 2/3 ?​
ddd [48]

Answer:

y=-2/3x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point-slope formula:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-5=-2/3(x-6)

y-5=-2/3x+4

y=-2/3x+9

You would then proceed to graphing this equation, as it is in slope intercept form now.
