Answer:

b = square root of 125

Put into calculator and put to 1dp

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem is

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

The a and b are the two short sides and c is always the hypotenuse

We just put the numbers in

10^2 + b^2 = 15^2

Now we can rearrange so that b^2 is by its self on the left side

b^2 = 15^2 - 10^2

Now just solve by putting into calculator

b^2 = 125

And finally square root to get b^2 down to b

b = square root of 125

Put into calculator and put to 1dp

Answer: b= 11.2

10^2 + b^2 = 15^2

100 + b^2 =  225

b^2 = 125

b= \sqrt{125}

b= 11.2

There is a vendor at a carnival selling bags of cotton candy. Each bag of cotton candy has the same cost. She starts each day wi
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The cost of each cotton candy bag is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let, the vendor has x dollar at the starting of each day.

Let, the cost of each cotton candy bag is y.

Now when she sells a total of 12 bags, she has $128.

x+12y=128  .....(1)

After she sells a total of 20 bags, she has $160.

x+20y=160  ....(2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2.

(x+20y)-(x+12y)=160-128

8y=32

y=4

Hence, the cost of each cotton candy bag is $4.

in the usa, the shoe sizes or men are approximated by the equation 3f-s=24, where f represents the length of the foot in inches
Otrada [13]

Answer:

x intercept = 8

y intercept = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

In the USA, the shoe sizes or men are approximated by the equation 3f-s=24, where f represents the length of the foot in inches and s represents the shoe size.

<u>When we represent this equation using a graph, we mark the independent variable on the x axis and the dependent variable on the y axis.</u>

Here the foot length is the independent variable and the shoe size is the dependent variable. Hence we take foot length on x axis.

To get x intercept put y=0, f = \frac{24}{3} = 8 inches .

This is the point from which where we start our shoe size.

The y intercept , s = -24.

A) (0,0) and (3,1)

1-0 divided by 3-0

Slope is 1/3

the slope represents the relationship between x and y

b) (6,2) and (-3,-1)

-1-2 divided by -3-6

Slope is 1/3

c) yes, the two triangles represent the same slope as all of the four points used are collinear (on the same line), making all the slopes equal.

In the standard (x, y) coordinate plane, if the x-coordinate of each point is 2 times the y-coordinate, what is the slope of the
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

the slope is 1/2

Work:

if the x-coordinate is two times the y-coordinate, that means you are going up one over two each time

slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

so you can pick two points, like (2, 1) and (4,2) and use the formula

slope= 2-1/4-2= 1/2
