Answer:

That means the missing side length is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse for this triangle is 17. The equation for the Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Our equation is x^2+64 = 289. We can now subtract 64 from both sides and get 225. The square root of 225 will be 15.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} \\ {8}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {17}^{2} \\ {b}^{2} = {17}^{2} - {8}^{2} \\ {b}^{2} = 289 - 64 \\ {b}^{2} = 225 \\ b = \sqrt{225} \\ b = 15$

hope it helps

Determine all prime numbers a, b and c for which the expression a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 + c ^ 2 - 1 is a perfect square .

kogti [31]

Answer:

The family of all prime numbers such that $a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} -1$ is a perfect square is represented by the following solution:

$a$ is an arbitrary prime number. (1)

$b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c}$ (2)

$c$ is another arbitrary prime number. (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From Algebra we know that a second order polynomial is a perfect square if and only if $(x+y)^{2} = x^{2} + 2\cdot x\cdot y + y^{2}$ . From statement, we must fulfill the following identity:

$a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} - 1 = x^{2} + 2\cdot x\cdot y + y^{2}$

By Associative and Commutative properties, we can reorganize the expression as follows:

$a^{2} + (b^{2}-1) + c^{2} = x^{2} + 2\cdot x \cdot y + y^{2}$ (1)

Then, we have the following system of equations:

$x = a$ (2)

$(b^{2}-1) = 2\cdot x\cdot y$ (3)

$y = c$ (4)

By (2) and (4) in (3), we have the following expression:

$(b^{2} - 1) = 2\cdot a \cdot c$

$b^{2} = 1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c$

$b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a\cdot c}$

From Number Theory, we remember that a number is prime if and only if is divisible both by 1 and by itself. Then, $a, b, c > 1$ . If $a$ , $b$ and $c$ are prime numbers, then $2\cdot a\cdot c$ must be an even composite number, which means that $a$ and $c$ can be either both odd numbers or a even number and a odd number. In the family of prime numbers, the only even number is 2.

In addition, $b$ must be a natural number, which means that:

$1 + 2\cdot a\cdot c \ge 4$

$2\cdot a \cdot c \ge 3$

$a\cdot c \ge \frac{3}{2}$

But the lowest possible product made by two prime numbers is $2^{2} = 4$ . Hence, $a\cdot c \ge 4$ .

The family of all prime numbers such that $a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} -1$ is a perfect square is represented by the following solution:

$a$ is an arbitrary prime number. (1)

$b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot a \cdot c}$ (2)

$c$ is another arbitrary prime number. (3)

Example: $a = 2$ , $c = 2$

$b = \sqrt{1 + 2\cdot (2)\cdot (2)}$

$b = 3$

please help me. how would you change x + 3y = 18 -3x -12y = -75 to eliminate y showing all of the work

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

x = -3

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3y = 18

-3x - 12y = -75

multiply first equation by 4

4 × (x + 3y) = 18 ➡ 4x + 12y = 72

now add the two equations up

4x + 12y - 3x -12y = 72 - 75 (-12y will eliminate 12y)

x = -3

Three machines operating independently, simultaneously, and at the same constant rate can fill a certain production order in 36

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Option B - 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Three machines operating independently, simultaneously, and at the same constant rate can fill a certain production order in 36 hours. If one additional machine were used under the same operating conditions.

To find : In how many fewer hours of simultaneous operation could the production order be filled?

Solution :

Let the numbers of hours taken including additional machine i.e. 4 machines be 'x' hours.

So, 3 machines take 36 hours

and 4 machines take x hours.

Then, $x=\frac{3\times 36}{4}$
