Solve using the Pythagorean theorem.need urgent help​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Olin [163]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, according to the Pythagoras’ theorem;

The square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides

The hypotenuse is the side that faces the right angle and it is represented by the square root of 85 here

Thus, we have it that;

(√85 )^2= 6^2 + y^2

85 = 36 + y^2

y^2 = 85-36

y^2 = 49

y = √49

y = 7

14. Solve the Quadratic equation by the<br>method of completing square 3x2 - 8x - 3 ​
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

x = -1/3 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure, but I think you mean 3x^2 - 8x - 3 = 0

In that case:

1. Add 3 on both sides

3x^2 - 8x -3 + 3  = 3 -> 3x^2 - 8x  = 3

2. Divide both sides by 3

x^2 - 8/3x  = 1

3. Add ((8/3)/2)^2 to both sides

x^2 - 8/3x + ((8/3)/2)^2 = 1 + ((8/3)/2)^2

4. Simplify

x^2 - 8/3x + (4/3)^2 = 1 + (4/3)^2

x^2 - 8/3x + 16/9 = 1 + 16/9

5. Rewrite x^2 - 8/3x + 16/9 = 1 + 16/9  as a perfect square

and simplify 1 + 16/9

(x - 4/3)^2 = 25/9

6. Find the square root of both sides

\sqrt{ (x -4/3)^2} = \sqrt{25/9}

7. Simplify

(x - 4/3) = ±5/3

8. Rewrite the equation as two seperate equations

(x - 4/3) = ±5/3 ->

a. (x - 4/3) = 5/3

b. (x - 4/3) = -5/3

9. Solve for x by isolating the variable (add 4/3 to both sides)

a. x = 5/3 + 4/3

b. x = - 5/3 + 4/3

10. Simplify

a. x = 9/3 -> x = 3

b. x = -1/3

Find mMK................
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Approximately mMK is 53 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the length of MK

As we can see, we have a right triangle at LNK

so

let us find the angle at L first

9 is adjacent to the angle at L and also, 15 is the hypotenuse of the angle at L

so the trigonometric identity that connects adjacent to the hypotenuse is the cosine

It is the ratio of the adjacent to the hypotenuse

So;

cos L = 9/15

L = arc cos (9/15)

L = 53.13 degree

Approximately, L = 53 degrees

so now, we want to get the arc length MK

We are to use the angle-arc relationship here

Using this; arc length MK is equal to the measure of L at the center which is 53 degrees

Can someone please help, I'll give out 20 points !

I believe it would be negative three (-4) since the lines are thinner however; there is a chance they are skip counting by 2. In that case the answer would be negative six (-6).

Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading west and the other east. The westbound train travels at 80 miles per
Deffense [45]

Answer:

1.4 hour, or 1 hr 24 min

Step-by-step explanation:

The trains separate at the rate (80 + 90) mph.

Recall that distance = rate times time, or time = distance / rate.

                                            238 mi

Here, the elapsed time is  -------------- = 1.4 hr, or 1 hr 24 min

                                             170 mph

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.<br><br> y = 2x + 8<br> y = -2x
posledela

Answer:

(- 2, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 8 → (1)

y = - 2x → (2)

substitute y = 2x + 8 into (2)

2x + 8 = - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )

4x + 8 = 0 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

4x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = - 2

substitute x = - 2 into (2)

y = - 2(- 2) = 4

solution is (- 2, 4 )
