Pythagorean Theorem is

a ²+ b ² = c ²

a and b are the shorter sides, while c is the hypotenuse, or longest side. Let’s say the side we are looking for is “b”.

Let’s first rearrange the equation, then sub in.

a ²+ b ² = c ²
b ² = c ²- a ²
b = √ (c ²- a ²)
b = √(17 ²- 15 ²)
b = √(289-225)
b = √ 64
b = 8

Which of the following best describes the graph below?

docker41 [41]

<h3>Answer: B.) it is a one-to-one function</h3>

Explanation:

It's a function because it passes the vertical line test. It's also one-to-one because it passes the horizontal line test.

The vertical line test is where we try to draw a single line through more than one point on the blue curve. Such a task isn't possible in this case, and we consider the curve passing the vertical line test. The horizontal line test is nearly identical, but we're dealing with horizontal lines of course.

Yo sup??

To find the turning point we have to differentiate the given function.

T(x)=(x-4)3+6

T'(x)=3

Therefore the turning point is at 3

Louis bought a burger and soda for $8. Kate purchased a slice of pizza and soda for $9. Biff purchased a burger, a slice of pizz

Arte-miy333 [17]

The equation for Louis's purchase is: $x+y=8$

The equation for Kate's purchase is: $y+z=9$

The equation for Biff's purchase is: $x+y+z=13.50$

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to define variables for each item involved in the purchase

Let x represent burger

y represent soda

z be the slice of pizza

Then

"Louis bought a burger and soda for $8"

$x+y=8$

"Kate purchased a slice of pizza and soda for $9"

$y+z=9$

"Biff purchased a burger, a slice of pizza and a soda for $13.50"

$x+y+z=13.50$

The equation for Louis's purchase is: $x+y=8$

The equation for Kate's purchase is: $y+z=9$

The equation for Biff's purchase is: $x+y+z=13.50$
