Answer:

It is a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Information needed:

Formula: a^2+b^2= c^2

a: leg

b: leg

c: hypotenuse

the longest side is always the hypotenuse, so 17 in

the order of legs don't matter so 8 in and 15 in

Solve:

a^2+b^2= c^2

8^2+15^2= 17^2

64+225= 289

289= 289

Final answer:

It is a right triangle

It is a RIGHT TRIANGLE

pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

if
a=8
b=15
c=17
then it is a right triangle:

8^2+15^2=17^2
64+225=289
289=289

therefore, it is a right triangle

First, determine if the boundary line should be dotted or solid. In this case, it should be dotted because the symbol is less than not less than or equal to. This leaves you with options B or D. Now, to see if it should be shaded up or down, test it by substituting any point, let's say the origin (0,0), to see if that point is a solution to the equation. If it is, you shade that side of the graph, but if it's not, you shade the other side of the graph.

0 is less than (-3/4)(0) + 2

0 is less than 2.

Because 0 is actually less than 2, the statement is correct and you shade below the line

The vertex of this parabola is at (2, -4). When the y-value is -3, the x-value is -3. What is the coefficient of the squared ter
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The squared term is 1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabola equation in the vertex form is

y = a \times (x - h)^2 + k

where point (h,k) is the vertex and a is the squared term. In this case h = 2 and k = -4. On the other hand, we know that y = -3 and x = -3 are in the parabola. Replacing these values in the formula gives

-3 = a \times (-3 - 2)^2 - 4

Solving for a

-3 + 4 = a \times (-5)^2

1 = a \times 25

a = \frac{1}{25}
