Answer:
The set of numbers that could not represent the three sides of a right triangle are;
{9, 24, 26}
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Pythagoras's theorem, when the lengths of the three sides of a right triangle includes two legs, 'x', and 'y', and the hypotenuse side 'r', we have;
r² = x² + y²
Where;
r > x, r > y
Therefore, analyzing the options using the relationship between the numbers forming the three sides of a right triangle, we have;
Set 1;
95² = 76² + 57², therefore, set 1 represents the three sides of a right triangle
Set 2;
82² = 80² + 18², therefore, set 2 represents the three sides of a right triangle
Set 3;
26² = 24² + 9², therefore, set 3 could not represent the three sides of a right triangle
Set 4;
39² = 36² + 15², therefore, set 4 represents the three sides of a right triangle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The above question is in the form of an exponential decay. The equation for an exponential decay is given by:
where y and x are variables, b < 1, a is the initial value of y (that is the value of y when x = 0).
Let y represent the number of trees left and x represent the number of months. Given that there is currently 2.5 billion trees, therefore a = 2.5 * 10⁹, b = 0.5% = 0.005. The equations becomes:
The answer is 14 divided by 2
