Step-by-step explanation:

pythagorean \: theorem \\  {hypothenes}^{2}  =  { {x}^{2} +  {y}^{2}  } \\  {17}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {15}^{2}  \\ 289 =  {x}^{2}  + 225 \\  {x}^{2}  = 64 \\ x = 8cm

Find the x and y intercept for f(x)=x^2-3x-40
Dahasolnce [82]

To find the y-intercept, simply set the value of x equal to 0, and solve for y, or f(x).

f(x) = 0^2 - 3(0) - 40

f(x) = -40

<h3>The y-intercept is -40.</h3>

Because this is a 2nd degree polynomial, we cannot find the x-intercepts in one step, and must instead use one of a few different methods.

In this case, we're going to use the quadratic formula:

\frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

Plug in the values.

3 +/- √(-3^2 + 160) / 2

3 +/- √169 / 2

3 +/- 13 / 2

(3 + 13) / 2 = 16 / 2 = 8

(3 - 13) = -10 / 2 = -5

<h3>The x intercepts are 8, and -5.</h3>

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. 10 14 ​
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

9.8 units

Explanation:

According to Pythagoras theorem, the square of length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of lengths of other two sides.

Let the third side be x units.

Then,

x² + 10² = 14²

=> x² + 100 = 196

=> x² = 196 - 100

=> x² = 96

=> x = √96

=> x = 4√6

=> x = 9.79....

=> x = 9.8 (Rounding to the nearest tenths)

So, the length of the third side is 9.8 units.

Area of deck= 2(20w)+4(w^2)+2(50w)d
456=2(20w)+4(w^2)+2(50w)

456=40w+4w^2+100w

456=4w^2+140w

114=w^2+35w

0=w^2+35w-114

find what 2 numbers multiply to get 114 and add to get 35 and factor

-3 and 38

0=(w-3)(w+38)

set each to zero

w-3=0

w=3
