Find the missing length

Mathematics
1 answer:
jasenka [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you will have to use pythagoras’ theorem.

The formula for the shorter side of this triangle is u²=c²-b² (or in this case u²=17²-8²).

17²=289

8²=64

The formula becomes u²=289-64 or u²=225

Then to find u on its own you have to square root 225.

The square root of 225 is 15.

Will records the wins and losses for his high school basketball team each year. He notices that the ratio of wins to losses has
AleksAgata [21]

Answer: 3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

 <u>Wins</u>      <u>Losses</u>            <u>Pattern</u>

   18             2               18 ÷ 2 = 9

   45            5               45 ÷ 5 = 9

   36            4               36 ÷ 4 = 9

   27            x

Using the same pattern we have  

  27 ÷ x = 9    

→        x = 3

What is the equation of the line through(4,2) and (0,-2)?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

y =  x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 2 )

m = \frac{-2-2}{0-4} = \frac{-4}{-4} = 1

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 2 ) ⇒ c = - 2

y = x - 2 ← equation of line

Kylo begins to fill up a bathtub at a steady rate. When the bathtub reaches 50 gallons at 15 minutes, Kylo
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Please find a visual representation of the scenario generated with MS Excel

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data on how Kylo fills up the bathtub with water are;

The time it takes to fill the bathtub with 50 gallons of water = 15 minutes

The time it takes to drain 30 gallons from the bathtub = 5 minutes

The time it takes to add 5 gallons of hot water = 2 minutes

The time it takes for all the water to drain out = 4 minutes

The given scenario can be represented visually on the coordinate plane, as follows;

The y-axis represents the amount of water in the bathtub in gallons

The x-axis represents the time from the when Kylo begins to fill the bathtub

The coordinates of points in the visual representation of the given scenario are therefore;

At the start, the bathtub is empty;

y = 0, x = 0

Then we have;

\begin{array}{ccc}The \ Number \  of  \ Gallons, \,  y &Time &Cumulative  \  Time, \, x\\0&0&0\\50&15&15\\20&5&20\\25&2&22\\0&4&26\end{array}

Plotting the number of gallons and the cumulative time values on MS Excel gives a visual representation of the scenario

3. Rachael is baking cookies. Her recipe calls for 2 cups
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

She should use 1/2 cup of chocolate chips.

Step-by-step explanation:

If she uses 2 cups for 8 people, that means

2 x 4 =8

So, all you have to do is,

? x 4 = 2

0.5 x 4 = 2

0.5 = 1/2

She should use 1/2 cup of chocolate chips
