Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2}

c^{2} = 8^{2} + 15^{2}

c^{2} = 64 + 225

c^{2} = 289

\sqrt{c^2} = \sqrt{289}

c = 17

<h3>Answer: <em>17</em></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Pythagorean Theorem</em>

<em>a^2+b^2=c^2</em>

<em>8^2+15^2=c^2</em>

<em>64+225=c^2</em>

<em>289=c^2</em>

<em>Now square both sides</em>

<em>x=17</em>

Compare 8^0 and 8^-2. which is greater? Explain your reasoning.
aev [14]

Hello there!

8^0 amd 8^-2


Let me start with 8^-2

8^-2 = 1/8 * 8

8^-2 = 1/64

which equals to 0.015625 in decimal


8^ 0 =  1

Yep, that's the answer! Easy, isn't? Well you may have been wondering why 8^0 is equal to 1.

I quoted an explanation online that says:    Think of "multiplication" as always including an extra "1" as a multiplier.

So it'd be like

8^ 0

8/8 = 1


Remember: Whenever a number has an exponent 0, the answer MUST be 1.


Thus,

8^0 is greater. As you can see, it is equal to 1, while the other one is equal to 0.01


I'm terrible at explaining stuff. I hope you find this answer somehow helpful :)

What is the equation of a line going through points (-15,70) and (5,10)
andrey2020 [161]
Simple....

you have:

(-15,70) and (5,10)

Using-->>

\frac{  y_{1} -y_{2} }{ x_{1}-  x_{2} }

\frac{70-10}{-15-5} = \frac{60}{-20} = -3

Using y=mx+b...and any of the coordinates....

70= -3(-15)+b

70=45+b

70=45+b
-45  -45

25=b

y=-3x+25

Thus,your answer.
