Let, one leg be x units.
since the other leg is 9.0 units shorter than the other,
the measure of the other leg =x-9
hypotenuse =13.0 units
According to Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.
x^2 +(x-9)^2 =13^2
x^2 + x^2 -18x +81 = 169
2x^2-18x-88=0
Divide the whole equation by 2
x^2 - 9x -44 =0
Let's use the quadratic formula to find the roots.
formula: x= [-b ± sqrt(b^2-4*a*c)]/2*a
a=1 b=-9 c=-44
x= [9±sqrt(81+176)]/2
=[9±sqrt(257)]/2
=[9±16.03]/2
=25.03/2 or -7.03/2
length of a triangle cannot be negative,
Therefore, x=25.03/2 =12.52
one leg =12.5 units
other leg =12.52-9 =3.5 units
D is the correct answer.
We do not need math in this instance, just knowledge.
We know that the answer will point to 0, not infinity. There are constraints. Also note that 1.75*7=12.25, which means you can fit no more than 7 books in the bag.
What best describes this? Answer Choice D
Hey there!
-2<3x+1
= 3x + 1 < -2
SUBTRACT 1 to BOTH SIDES
3x + 1 - 1 < -2 + 1
CANCEL out: 1 - 1 because that gives you 0
KEEP: -2 + 1 because that helps you solve for x
-2 + 1 = -3
New EQUATION: 3x > -3
DIVIDE 3 to BOTH SIDES
3x/3 > -3/3
CANCEL out: 3/3 because that gives you 1
KEE3 -3/3 because that helps us compare for x
-3/3 = -1
Answer to the equation: x > -1
OVERALL Answer: x > -1; It is an OPENED circle shaded to the right starting at -1 (Option A.)
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

The least square regression equation for the information provided is y = 9.72x - 40.776
<u>The general equation of a regression model can be expressed thus</u>:
Calculating slope, b :
- b = 0.81(177.6 / 14.8) = 9.72
<u>Plugging the values of b, y and x into the equation in other to calculate c</u> :
696 = 9.72(75.8) + c
696 = 736.776 + c
c = 696 - 736.776
c = - 40.776
Therefore, the linear regression model can be expressed as : y = 9.72x - 40.776
