1)
8² + 15² = 17²
64 + 225 = 289
This is true, so the triangle is a right triangle.
2)
4² + 12² = 13²
16 + 144 = 169
This is false, so the triangle is not a right triangle.
3)
20² + 21² = 27²
400 + 441 = 729
This is false, so the triangle is not a right triangle.
4)
28² + 45² = 53²
784 + 2,025 = 2,809
This is true, so the triangle is a right triangle.
Answer:
the answer should be 54.6 grams
Combine the two equations in the right amounts to eliminate y :
-2 (2x + 3y) + (3x + 6y) = -2 (17) + 30
-4x - 6y + 3x + 6y = -34 + 30
-x = -4
x = 4
Solve for y :
2x + 3y = 17
8 + 3y = 17
3y = 9
y = 3
10 to the 3 power is your answer
