Answer:
$4.18
Step-by-step explanation:
You take $3.80 and multiply by it .1 (turn 10% into a decimal by moving the decimal to the right two places).
This gives you .38
Then you add .38 to $3.80 which gives you $4.18.
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
4/10 in simplest form is 2/5
6/20 in simplest form is 3/10
10/25 in simplest form is 2/5
Answer:
y = -0.83x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form is y = mx+b.
M is the slope: In this case the slope (rise/run) is 10/12. However, the slope is decreasing is that would make it negative.
Now we have: y = -0.83x + b
B represents the y-intercept. The y-intercept here is -2. So our final equation is:
y = -0.83x - 2
