Answer:

Shortest Leg: 5 inches, Hypotenuse: 13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle follows the pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2. C is the hypotenus. A combination found using this is 5, 12, and 13. To double check this, we know that the hypotenus is 2x+3, where x is the smallest leg.

If I can paint 96 sq ft in 15 minutes how long does it take to paint 1 sq ft
White raven [17]

It takes 0.15625 minutes to paint 1 square feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, I can paint 96 sq ft in 15 minutes

To find: Time taken to paint 1 square feet

From given,

96 square feet is painted in 15 minutes

Let "x" be the time taken to paint 1 square feet

Then, we can say,

96 square feet = 15 minutes

1 square feet = x minutes

This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

96 \times x = 15 \times 1\\\\x = \frac{15}{96}\\\\x = 0.15625

Thus it takes 0.15625 minutes to paint 1 square feet

The vertices of ABC are A(-3,5), B(-2,3), and C(-5,3). If ABC is reflected across the y-axis to produce the image A'B'C', find t
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

C' =(5,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = (-3,5)

B = (-2,3)

C = (-5,3)

Reflection across y-axis

Required

Find C'

For reflection across y-axis, the rule is:

(x,y) \to (-x,y)

So, the image of C is:

(-5,3) \to (-(-5),3)

(-5,3) \to (5,3)

Hence:

C' =(5,3)
