Envision this as a right triangle, with one leg of 12 miles, and the other 16 miles. Solve using the Pythagorean Theorem a²+b²=c²:

12²+16²=c²
400 = c²
20=c...they live at least 20 miles from each other.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

588,000,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inserting commas  every 3 digits from the right, we have:

587,881,188  so that is 587 million and 881,000.

As 8 is the next digit after the 587 we add 1 to 587 to make 588 million.

The exponential function y= a(b)^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10). Which of the following is closest to the value o
Yuki888 [10]

If the exponential function y=ab^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

The given exponential equation is:

y=ab^x

The function passes through the points (3, 25) and (8, 10)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 25 into the function y=ab^x

25=ab^3............................(1)

Substitute x = 8 and y = 10 into the function y=ab^x

10=ab^8.............................(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

\frac{10}{25}=\frac{ab^8}{ab^3}  \\\\0.4=b^5\\\\b=0.4^\frac{1}{5} \\\\b=0.4^{0.2}\\\\b=0.833

Therefore, if the exponential function y=ab^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833
