Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

a^2 + 10^2 = (5 sqrt(5))^2

a^2 +100 = 25(5)

a^2 +100 = 125

a^2 = 125-100

a^2 = 25

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(25)

a = 5

Use factoring to write an expression that is equivalent to 25b^16-64c^2

avanturin [10]

We can write this as the difference of squares:
(5b⁸+8c)(5b⁸-8c)

To write as the difference of squares, take the square root of each term first:
√25b¹⁶ = 5b⁸; √64c² = 8c

Now we write this as a sum in one binomial and a difference in the other:
(5b⁸+8c)(5b⁸-8c)

Joe's annual income has been increasing each year by the same dollar amount. The first year his income was $17 comma 90017,900

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

In 17th year, his income was $30,700.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the income has been increasing each year by the same dollar amount. It means it is linear function.

Income in first year = $17,900

Income in 4th year = $20,300

Let y be the income at x year.

It means the line passes through the point (1,17900) and (4,20300).

If a line passes through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ , then the equation of line is

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

The equation of line is

$y-17900=\frac{20300-17900}{4-1}(x-1)$

$y-17900=\frac{2400}{3}(x-1)$

$y-17900=800(x-1)$

$y-17900=800x-800$

Add 17900 on both sides.

$y=800x-800+17900$

$y=800x+17100$

The income equation is y=800x+17100.

Substitute y=30,700 in the above equation.

$30700=800x+17100$

Subtract 17100 from both sides.

$30700-17100=800x$

$13600=800x$

Divide both sides by 800.

$\frac{13600}{800}=x$

$17=x$

Therefore, in 17th year his income was $30,700.

8 Darpan runs a distance of 12 km and then cycles a distance of 26 km. His running speed is x km/h and his cycling speed is 10 k

Sonja [21]

The equation in terms of x, for the total time he takes in hours would be 2.48 = 12/x + 26/10x

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed can be calculated as the ratio of distance traveled to the time taken

Darpan runs a distance of 12 km and then cycles a distance of 26 km.

Total distance = 12 + 26 = 38km

The running speed is x km/h

A = x

The cycling speed is 10 km/h faster than his running speed

B = 10x

He takes a total time of 2 hours and 48 minutes.

So, the total time he takes

Time = Distance x speed

2.48 = 12/x + 26/10x

10x(2.48) = 120 + 26

24.8x = 146

x = 5.8
