What is the length of the hypotenuse

Mathematics
2 answers:
kramer3 years ago

Answer:

35 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

28^2 + 21^2 = c^2

784+441 = c^2

1225 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(1225) = sqrt(c^2)

35 = c

Answer:

35 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorem states that a^2+b^2=c^2. (The hypotenuse is c)

So, we will plug a and b in.

28^2+21^2=c^2

Then, simplify.

784+441=c^2

1225=c^2

c=35

Therefore, the hypotenuse is 35 km.

What is the point of intersection of x-2y=8 and y=2- 1/2 x
Alex777 [14]
There are several ways you can go about solving this. The easiest way is to graph it with desmos. But I'll show you how to do it algebraically.

So what it means when it says the point of intersection is what is the ordered pairs.

Well we can do this using substitution since that might be easier

So since y = 2 - 0.5x we can substitute it into x - 2y = 8
That gets us:

x - 2(2 - 0.5x) = 8

Next distribute the -2:

x -4 + x = 8

Combine like terms and solve for x!

2x =  12
x = 6

Now substitute x into any of our y = 2 - 0.5x so we get

y = 2 - 0.5(6)

y = -1

So our answer is (6,-1)
