Using the pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), this would make the equation 48^2 + b^2 = 80^2 (the hypotenuse must be plugged in as the "c" value).

Once you solve, this becomes 2304 + b^2 = 6400.

Subtract 2304 from 6400 and you get b^2 = 4096.

Take the square root of 4096 and you get b=64.


The answer is 64.

A company performed power tests on a set of batteries of the same type. The company 10 determined that the equation y = 100 - 8.
alexgriva [62]
For this case we have the following equation:
 y = 100 - 8.9x
 Where,
 x = the number of hours of use
 For 11 hours of use we have x = 11.
 Substituting:
 y = 100 - 8.9 * (11)
 y = 2.1%
 Answer:
 
the best prediction of the percent of remaining power for a battery after 11 hours of use is:
 
y = 2.1%
