It would be $100 if he works for eight hour hours if it wasn’t overtime but since it’s overtime and he works half of the amount it would be 50

Use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for x.<br><br> HELP ME PLZZZZ!!!! ASAP

4vir4ik [10]

Answer: $2\sqrt{22}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem: $a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}$ , where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

We can solve for x by only using the left side of the triangle. Since we're only using the left side of the triangle, we can reduce 18 by 2 to get 9. Now we plug in our information to the equation.

$9^{2} +b^{2} = 13^{2}$

$81 +b^{2} = 169$

Since we don't know what $b^{2}$ is, we're going to isolate it by subtracting 81 on both sides

$b^{2} = 88$

We have to square root both sides in order to find out b (or x in the problem).

$\sqrt{b^{2}} = \sqrt{88}$

When you put this on a calculator it would result in $2\sqrt{22}$ which is the answer d in the problem.

Find the value of k given that the line through (k,2) and (7,0) is perpendicular to the line y=x-28/5

Tanzania [10]

Y = x - 28/5. The slope here is 1. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -1.

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(k,2)....x1 = k and y1 = 2
(7,0)...x2 = 7 and y2 = 0
sub
slope = (0 - 2) / (7 - k)
slope = -2 / ?......now if we want the slope to be -1..that means the number where the question mark is has to be 2....for that to happen, k has to be 5...because 7 - 5 = 2.

so ur answer is : k = 5

Hailey rolls a twelve sided die, to choose a random number from one to twelve. What is the probability that the number hailey ro

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

12 sided die has 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 as the sides.

Two digits are 10, 11, and 12.

Even numbers are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12.

So two digits or even numbers are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, and 12. (7 total numbers)

P(Two digits or even) = 7/12
