Answer: 1. x= 20 units,   2. x= 5\sqrt{3} units    3. x= 4\sqrt{2} units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle,

Hypotenuse^2= Perpendicular^2+Base^2  (Pythagoras theorem)

1. Hypotenuse = x , Base = 16, Perpendicular = 12

\Rightarrow\ x^2 =12^2+16^2\\\\ \Rightarrow\ x^2=144+256\\\\ \Rightarrow\ x^2=400\\\\ \Rightarrow\ x=\sqrt{400}=20

2. Hypotenuse = 14 , Base = 11, Perpendicular = x

\Rightarrow\ 14^2=x^2+11^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 196=x^2+121\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=196-121\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2 = 75\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\sqrt{75}=\sqrt{25\times3}=5\sqrt{3}

3.  Hypotenuse = 9 , Base = x, Perpendicular =7

\Rightarrow\ 9^2=x^2+7^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 81= x^2+49\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=81-49\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=32\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16\times2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=4\sqrt{2}

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Option D.The number of dollars it costs to rent the house for 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x) -----> the total cost for renting a vacation house

x ------> the number of days rented

we know that

f(x)=10+250x

so

For x=10 days

substitute in the function

f(10)=10+250(10)=$2,510

f(10) represent the number of dollars it costs to rent the house for 10 days
