Answer: 20

Step 1: Define hypotenuse

In any right triangle, there are two legs and one hypotenuse. The legs are the two sides that intersect to show the right angle. The hypotenuse is the longest side, one that is easily found when using Pythagorean Theorem.

Step 2: Define Pythagorean Theorem

The Pythagorean Theorem can be used to find the hypotenuse, with the formula
a^2+b^2=c^2
The hypotenuse is represented as the letter c, and the legs are shown with a and b. Keep in mind that ^2 is a way to show that a variable is squared.

Step 3: Solve for hypotenuse

To find the hypotenuse, simple use the information above to substitute the variables for numbers. The only variable that will not be filled in is c, as we are trying to find the hypotenuse.

*Rewrite equation*

a^2+b^2=c^2

*Fill in a and b*

16^2+12^2=c^2

*Multiply 16 by 16; Multiply 12 by 12*

256+144=c^2

*Add numbers on the left side of the equation*

400=c^2

*Get c alone on the right side by finding the square root of 400 and c^2*

√400= √c^2

20=c

Answer:

  see attachments for a table and graph

Step-by-step explanation:

I find it convenient to use a graphing calculator or spreadsheet to do repetitive computations reliably.

Your specific question asks for h(0):

  h(0) = -|0 +2| +1 = -2 +1

  h(0) = -1

You may want to check your other table values.

In a function, y varies inversely with x. The consistent of variation is 4. Which table could represent the function?
lianna [129]

Answer:

none of the tables shown

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation is

xy = k where k is the constant

xy = 4

in the top table

-2*2 = -4 so it cannot be the first table

In the middle table

-2 * -8 = 16  so it is not the middle table

In the bottom table

-2 *4 = -8 so it is not the bottom table

There must be a table not shown
