Answer:

x = 5\sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² + 9² = 16²

x² + 81 = 256 ( subtract 81 from both sides )

x² = 175 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{175} = 5\sqrt{7} ≈ 13.23 units ( to 2 dec. places )

Answer:

x = 5√7

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagoras theorem,

(hypotenuse)² = (altitude)² + (base)²

(hyp)² - (base)² = (alt)²

(16)² - (9)² = x²

256 - 81 = x²

x² = 175

x = √175

x = 5√7

hope this helps you!

The sum of two numbers is 68. The second number is 2 more than twice<br> the first.
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

let

one number is x

another is 2x+2

now 2x+2+x=68

or, 3x+2=68

3x=66

or x=66/3=22

so one number is 22 and another is (22X2+2)=46

What is the surface area of this right circular cone?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

○ B) 624π mm.²

Step-by-step explanation:

\pi r(r +  \sqrt{ {r}^{2} +  {h}^{2}}) = S. A. \\  \\ \pi (12)(12 + \sqrt{{12}^{2} + {40}^{2}}) \\  \\ 12\pi(12 + \sqrt{1744}) = 12\pi(12 + 38) = 12\pi(50) = 600\pi \\  \\ 600\pi ≈ 624\pi

A rocket travels in a trajectory given by the equation s = -4.9t 2 + v0t, where s is meters above ground, t is time in seconds a
Reptile [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

s = -4.9t² + 49t

The vertex of the parabola is at t = -b/(2a).

t = -49 / (2 × -4.9)

t = 5

The rocket reaches its maximum height after 5 seconds.

May someone please explain to me how to do this in the easiest way? I don't really understand. Thanks❤

Ok, so 1 is a whole number.  1/5 is a fraction of 1.  So you want to subtract 1/5 from 1.  The number 1 is equal to 5/5.  So if you subtract 1/5 from 5/5 you are left with 4/5.  You do the same with the second one, just subtract 3/5 from 5/5 to get your answer.
