Is 2.4, 4.5 and 5.2 a right triangle?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorian theorm to find whether it's a right triangle or not.

So the hyp will be the largest number. And the hyp must be equal to the sum of b and c squared

5.2 squared= 2.4 squared+ 4m5 squared

27.04= 26.01

It's not equal so the triangle isn't a right triangle.

What is the value of (2x^2-5x+4)if x =7
Troyanec [42]
<span>We have to use PEMDAS for this expression.

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

</span>(2x^2 - 5x + 4)                    Original Mathematical Expression

[2(7)^2 - 5(7) + 4]                 Plugging the value of x, 7 into expression.

There are parentheses, so that means we have to work in them.

There are exponents, so we have to do those first.

[2(49) - 5(7) +4]                    Exponents.

There is multiplication, that we can do, so we do that left to right.

[98 - 35 + 4]                         Multiplication.

There is no division.

There is addition and subtraction, so we do those left to right.

[63 + 4]                                Subtraction.

67                                        Addition.

Final Answer: 67

stellarik [79]
So to add fractions they need to have a common denominator, which in this case is 24. then multiply 1 by 4 and 5 by 3 because whatever you multiply the denominator by you need to do the same to the numerator, which will get you 4/24+15/24 then you add across the numerators and you get 19/24
