The most efficient way of finding the answer to this question is first reducing 10-24-26 and comparing it with the first 5 combinations for right-angled triangles:

First, reduce 10-24-26 by dividing it by the GCF (greatest common factor). 

10-24-26 divided by its GCF, 2, is:  5-12-13

Now comparing it with the first 5 combinations for right-angled triangles:

1)   3-4-5
2)  5-12-13
3)  7-24-25
4)  8-15-17
5)  20-21-29

As you can see, number 2 is the same as our reduced example. Therefore, we know that 10-24-26 is a right triangle. 

Hope this helps!

Peter tracks the goals he scores in 9 soccer games. In two games Peter scored 2 goals each, in one game he scored 0 goals, in tw
Reika [66]

The average number of goals per game Peter scores, rounded to one decimal place is 1.6

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

In first two games Peter scored 2 goals each. So, total score in two games = (2×2)= 4

In one game he scored 0 goal and in next two games he scored 3 goals each, so the total is (3×2)= 6

In the last four games he scored 1 goal in each, so the total is (1×4)= 4

So, the total score in all 9 games =4+0+6+4=14

Thus, the average number of goals = \frac{14}{9}= 1.5555....

So, the average number of goals per game Peter scores, rounded to one decimal place is 1.6
