Answer: 5..6 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Hypotenuse of isosceles triangle is 8 inches

In isosceles triangle two sides are equal

Suppose the other side is x

Using Pythagoras we can write

\Rightarrow x^2+x^2=8^2\\\Rightarrow 2x^2=64\\\Rightarrow x^2=32\\\Rightarrow x=4\sqrt{2}\approx 5.6\ in.

Therefore, the lengths of the legs is 5.6 inches

A man invests a total of $9,493in two savings accounts. One account yields 9% simple interest and the other 10% simple interest.
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$1850

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The person invests a total of $9493
  • Amount invested in 9% Simple interest account =x
  • Amount invested in 10% Simple interest account= 9493-x
  • Earnings in Interest=$930.8

The simple interest formula

S.I=\frac{P\times T\times R}{100}

where

  • S.I is simple interest
  • P is principle invested
  • T is time period
  • R is rate of interest

There fore total interest

=930.8= \frac{x\times 1\times 9}{100} +\frac{(9493-x)\times 1\times 10}{100}\\930.8=\frac{9x+94930-10x}{100}\\93080=94930-x\\x=94930-93080\\x=1850

Therefore x=1850

⇒Amount invested in 9% account= $1850

Any number that can be written as a ratio of two integers
adoni [48]

Answer:

Rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

Any number that can be written as a ratio of two integers is a rational number.

In the question, you have the keyword 'ratio', meaning a comparison between two numbers.  For example 1.5 can be expressed as the ratio between 3 and 2 (3/2), as a fraction.

<u>When a number cannot be expressed as a fraction, it's called an irrational </u>number. <u> The most famous irrational number of all would be pi (π). </u> You cannot express pi in a ratio between numbers, because it's  too complicated, it's basically an infinite number without any periodicity.

Can someone please help me
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

y = -5/3x -7

Step-by-step explanation:

If lines are parallel they have the same slope m = -5/3. Just need to figure out the new y-intercept going through the point (-9, 8).

y = mx + b

8 = -5/3(-9) + b

8 = 15 + b

b = -7

Now use m and b to form new equation of parallel line.

y = mx + b

y = -5/3x -7
