Ok so pythagorean theorem is
a^2+b^2=c^2
plug it in
8^2+15^2=17^2
64+225=289
289=289

yass it works so that means they do make a right triangle

yes, they make a right triangle because they're a pythagorean triple and pythagorean theorem works when you plug the numbers in.

A bus makes a stop at 2:30, letting off 16 people and letting on 3. The bus makes another stop ten minutes later to let off 2 mo
liq [111]

Answer:

10 people lesser.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, it 15 people  get off but 9 people get picked up, hence losing 6 people.  If 4 more people get off, it has then lost 10 people total.

The original number of passengers on the bus decreased by 10 after the second stop

Assume that the total passengers on the bus before 2:30 was x

Now, at 2:30:

15 passengers got off and 9 got on.

This means that:

number of passengers = x - 15 + 9 

number of passengers = x -6

10 minutes later:

4 passengers got off the bus

This means that:

number of passengers = (x-6) - 4

number of passengers = x - 10

The original number of passengers on the bus decreased by 10 after the second stop.

A person invests 10000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.5% interest compounded
Greeley [361]

The person would have to leave the money in the bank for 7.8 years for it to reach 13,500 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First we must calculate how much interest is generated for a single year. The annual interest rate is 4.5% i.e. 4.5% of 10,000 dollars which equals 0.045 × 10,000 = 450 dollars a year. As the years pass, more and more will be put into the account due to interest.

Step 2; For there to be 13,500 dollars in the bank account we need to calculate how much money is added due to interest.

The money needed to be added through interest = 13,500 - 10,000 = 3,500 dollars.

So we need to determine how long it will take for the bank to add 3,500 dollars by adding 450 dollars a year.

The number of years to reach 13,500 dollars = \frac{3,500}{450} = 7.777 years. By rounding this value to the nearest tenth, we get 7.8 years.
