Answer:

1/-8

Step-by-step explanation:

You put the -8 into fraction form -8/1, and you switch the denominator and numerator and you get 1/-8 or -1/8. In decimal form that would be -0.125

Solve for the unknown side in the right triangle if b=24 and c=26 find a

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the <u>Pythagorean Theorem</u> to find the unknown side.

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

<h3>We are given that:</h3>

b=24

c=26

We need to solve for a.

$a^2+24^2=26^2\\\\ \text {Solve Exponents:}\\\rightarrow 24^2 = 576\\\rightarrow 26^2 = 676\\\\a^2+576=676\\\rightarrow a^2+576-576=676-576 \text{ (Subtraction Property of Equality)}\\a^2=100\\\sqrt{a^2} =\sqrt{100} \text { (Take the square root on both sides.) }\\\\\boxed {a=100}$

<em>Option C should be the correct answer.</em>

Pauley graphs the change in temperature of a glass of hot tea over time. He sees that the function appears to decrease quickly a

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: We know that an "exponential growth" is that where a function start growing slowly and after start increasing more quickly.

a "logarithmic growth" is the opposite of this, at first you will see a quick increase, that after some time gets slower.

But in this case we are searching for decays: The decays are the opposite of the growths, an "logarithmic decay" starts slow and gets faster latter, and an "exponential decay" decreases very quickly at first, and latter more slowly.

Then, the model for the temperature of the hot tea over the time is a "exponential decay", this is a function of the form T(x) = T₀ $e^{-kt}$ , where T₀ is the initial temperature, t is the time, and k is a constant number.

at shop and shop ,shaquana buys 3 pounds of squash and 2 pounds of eggplants and pays $2.85.then ,evelyn buys 4 pounds of squash

Montano1993 [528]

Each pound of squash cost $0.49 while each pound of eggplant cost $0.69.

Let x represent the cost of each pound of squash and y represent the cost of each pound of eggplant.

3 pounds of squash and 2 pounds of eggplants cost $2.85. Hence:

3x + 2y = 2.85 (1)

4 pounds of squash and 5 pounds of eggplants cost $5.41. Hence:

4x + 5y = 5.41 (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 0.49, y = 0.69

Each pound of squash cost $0.49 while each pound of eggplant cost $0.69.
