A Pythagorean triple is a set of thre integer numbers, a, b and c that meet the Pythgorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Use Euclide's formula for generating Pythagorean triples.
This formula states that given two arbitrary different integers, x and y, both greater than zero, then the following numbers a, b, c form a Pythagorean triple:
a = x^2 - y^2
b = 2xy
c = x^2 + y^2.
From a = x^2 - y^2, you need that x > y, then you can discard options A and D.
Now you have to probe the other options.
Start with option B, x = 4, y = 3
a = x^2 - y^2 = 4^2 - 3^2 = 16 -9 = 7
b = 2xy = 2(4)(3) = 24
c = x^2 9 y^2 = 4^2 + 3^2 = 16 + 9 = 25
Then we could generate the Pythagorean triple (7, 24, 25) with x = 4 and y =3.
If you want, you can check that a^2 + b^2 = c^2; i.e. 7^2 + 24^2 = 25^2
The answer is the option B. x = 4, y = 3
Answer:
we need to see the whole graph to determine the domain and range please
Step-by-step explanation:
You will need 6 coins of 5
and 2 coins of 1
hope it helps
=) = )
The zero product property tells us that if we have
xy=0, then we can assume that x and y both equal 0
so
(4k+5)(k+7)=0
we can assume that 4k+5=0 and k+7=0
so
4k+5=0
minus 5 both sides
4k=-5
divide both sides by 4
k=-5/4
k+7=0
minus 7 both sides
k=-7
k=-5/4 or -7
the answer would be 10/21
