We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b = legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse
Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 + S^2+4S+4 = 100 cm^2 [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S = 100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0 means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm
Answer:
x=105 and y=190
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+1y=610, and x+y=295 ; x= 105 and y=190
I believe the answer is sometimes
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In the Slope-Intercept Formula, 
, <em>b</em><em> </em>represents the y-intercept, and the <em>rate of</em><em> </em><em>change</em><em> </em>[<em>slope</em>] is represented by <em>m</em>,<em> </em>so the slope is −⅔.
