Using the Pythagorean theorem:

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 20^2 + 15^2)

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 400 + 225)

Hypotenuse = sqrt(625)

Hypotenuse = 25

Answer: 25 inches

Answer:

25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

20^2 + 15^2 = c^2

400 +225 = c^2

625=c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(625) = sqrt(c^2)

25 = c

What is "The relationship between time and the distance Remaining on a 3 mile walk for someone walking at a steady rate of 2 mph
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Let d be the remaining distance.

Let t be the remaining time.

The standard distance equation is:

d = rt

We are given the rate as 2, so:

d = 2t

At the start of the walk, the remaining distance is 3 miles.

The remaining time is 1.5 hours.

At the end of the walk, the remaining distance is 0 miles.

The remaining time is 0 hours.

A graph of the distance and time would be a continuous, solid line. That's because the walker will be at every distance between 3 and 0 and every time between 1.5 and 0.

Answer:

The graph of this would be a solid line

I need help , I don’t understand this

#2. First, we factor each polynomial. Then, if any terms on both the top and the bottom of the fraction match, they cancel out. So... we do just that. You end up with:

\frac{x(x-4)}{(x+9)(x-4)}

Notice there's an (x-4) on both top and bottom. So they cancel out. That leaves us with your answer of \frac{x}{(x+9)}

#3. We do the same thing as above then multiply and simplify. In the interest of space, I'll cut straight to some simplification. 

\frac{2(x+2)^{3} }{6x(x+2)} ( \frac{5}{(x-2)^{2} } )

Now we start cancelling. For the first fraction, there are 3 (x+2)'s on top and 1 on the bottom so we will cancel out the one on the bottom and leave 2 (x+2)'s on top. There are no more polynomials to cancel out so now we multiply across:

\frac{10(x+2)^{2} }{6x(x-2)^{2} }

10 and 6 share a GCF of 2 so we divide both of those by 2. This leaves us with the final answer of:

\frac{5(x+2)^{2} }{3x(x-2)^{2} }

#4. This equation introduces division and because of it, we must flip the second fraction to make the division sign into a multiplication symbol. Again for space, I'll flip the fraction and simplify in one step. 

\frac{3(x+2)(x-2)}{(x+4)(x-2)} ( \frac{x+4}{6(x+3)})

Now we do our cancelling. First fraction has (x - 2) in the top and bottom. They're gone. The first fraction has a (x + 4) on the bottom and the second fraction has one on the top. Those will also cancel. This leaves you with:

\frac{3(x+2)}{6(x+3)}

3 and 6 share a GCF of 3 so we divide both numbers by this. This leaves you with your final answer:

\frac{x+2}{2(x+3)}

#5. We are adding so we first factor both fractions and see what we need to multiply by to make the denominators the same. I'll do the former first. (10 - x) and (x - 10) are not the same so we multiply the first equation (top and bottom) by (x - 10) and the second equation by (10 - x). Because they will now have the same denominator we can combine them already. This gives us:

\frac{(3+2x)(x-10)+(13+x)(10-x)}{(10-x)(x-10)}

Now we FOIL each to expand and then simplify by combining like terms. Again for space, I'm just showing the result of this; you end up with:

\frac{x^{2}-20x+100}{(10-x)(x-10)}

Now we factor the top. This gives you 2 (x - 10)'s on top and one on bottom. So we just leave one on the top and cancel the bottom one out. This leaves you with your answer:

\frac{x+10}{10-x}

#6. Same process for this one so I won't repeat. I'll just show the work.

\frac{3}{(x-3)(x+2)} +  \frac{2}{(x-3)(x-2)} becomes

\frac{3(x-2) + 2(x+2)}{(x-3)(x+2)(x-2)} which equals

\frac{3x - 6 + 2x + 4}{(x-3)(x+2)(x-2)} giving you the final answer

\frac{5x - 2}{(x-3)(x+2)(x-2)}

#7. For this question we find the least common denominator to make the denominators match. For 5, x, and 2x, the LCD is 10x. So we multiply top and bottom of each fraction by what would make the bottom equal 10x. This rewrites the fraction as:

\frac{3x}{5} ( \frac{2x}{2x}) * ( \frac{5}{x}( \frac{10}{10}) -  \frac{5}{2x} ( \frac{5}{5}))

Simplify to get:

\frac{3x}{5}  * ( \frac{25}{10x})

After simplifying again, you end up with your final answer: 

\frac{3}{2}

The students at Woodward Elementary voted for a school mascot. The falcon won with 5/8 of the votes and the eagle came second wi
Alenkasestr [34]

195 students voted for eagle in the election

What is ratio?

Ratio means expressing the a figure as a fraction of total figure, in the case of falcon, the number of students that voted for falcon is seen as 5 whereas the total number of students that voted is 8 whereas for eagle, the total number of students that voted for eagle is 1 compared to 3 which represents the total number of votes cast.

In a bid to determine the number of students that voted eagle in the election, we would simply multiply total votes of 536 by 1/3

votes for eagle=1/3*586

votes for eagle=195 votes

We have rounded to the nearest whole number since number of votes cannot be fractional
