Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Pythagorean triple the square on the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
A
longest side = 10 ⇒ 10² = 100
6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100
A is a Pythagorean triple
B
longest side = 17 ⇒ 17² = 289
8² + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289
B is a Pythagorean triple
C
longest side = 9 ⇒ 9² = 81
5² + 8² = 25 + 64 = 89
89 ≠ 81
C is not a Pythagorean triple
D
longest side = 13 ⇒ 13² = 169
5² + 12² = 25 + 144 = 169
D is a Pythagorean triple
Answer:
1m = 100 cm
First sprinter stride is 120 cm. Steps he will take
= 100/1.2 = 83 1/3 steps
Second sprinter takes a stride of 75 cm
= 100/0.75 = 133 1/3 steps
No Alan did not break even
Alan incured a loss of 6.25 %
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Alan bought two bikes
He sold one to Beth for $300 taking a 25% loss
He also sold one to Greta for $300 making a 25% profit
When a person sells two similar items, one at a gain of say x%, and the other at a loss of x%, then the seller always incurs a loss
Which is given as:
Here, x = 25
Thus the loss percentage is 6.25 %
For this problem plug in the given x and y values:
For the first one: No
second one: No
third one: Yes
fourth one: No
