Use the Polynomial Identity below to help you create a list of 10 Pythagorean Triples:
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

(3,4,5)

(6,8,10)

(5,12,13)

(8,15,17)

(12,16,20)

(7,24,25)

(10,24,26)

(20,21,29)

(16,30,34)

(9,40,41)

Just choose 2 numbers from {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...} and make sure the one you input for x is larger.

Post the three in the comments and I will check them for you.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to choose 2 positive integers for x and y where x>y.

Positive integers are {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,.....}.

I'm going to start with (x,y)=(2,1).

x=2 and y=1.

(2^2+1^2)^2=(2^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot2\cdot1)^2

(4+1)^2=(4-1)^2+(4)^2

(5)^2=(3)^2+(4)^2

So one Pythagorean Triple is (3,4,5).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(3,1).

x=3 and y=1.

(3^2+1^2)^2=(3^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot3\cdot1)^2

(9+1)^2=(9-1)^2+(6)^2

(10)^2=(8)^2+(6)^2

So another Pythagorean Triple is (6,8,10).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(3,2).

x=3 and y=2.

(3^2+2^2)^2=(3^2-2^2)^2+(2\cdot3\cdot2)^2

(9+4)^2=(9-4)^2+(12)^2

(13)^2=(5)^2+(12)^2

So another is (5,12,13).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(4,1).

(4^2+1^2)^2=(4^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot4\cdot1)^2

(16+1)^2=(16-1)^2+(8)^2

(17)^2=(15)^2+(8)^2

Another is (8,15,17).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(4,2).

(4^2+2^2)^2=(4^2-2^2)^2+(2\cdot4\cdot2)^2

(16+4)^2=(16-4)^2+(16)^2

(20)^2=(12)^2+(16)^2

We have another which is (12,16,20).

I'm going to choose (x,y)=(4,3).

(4^2+3^2)^2=(4^2-3^2)^2+(2\cdot4\cdot3)^2

(16+9)^2=(16-9)^2+(24)^2

(25)^2=(7)^2+(24)^2

We have another is (7,24,25).

You are just choosing numbers from the positive integer set {1,2,3,4,... } and making sure the number you plug in for x is higher than the number for y.

I will do one more.

Let's choose (x,y)=(5,1).

(5^2+1^2)^2=(5^2-1^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot1)^2

(25+1)^2=(25-1)^2+(10)^2

(26)^2=(24)^2+(10)^2

So (10,24,26) is another.

Let (x,y)=(5,2).

(5^2+2^2)^2=(5^2-2^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot2)^2

(25+4)^2=(25-4)^2+(20)^2

(29)^2=(21)^2+(20)^2

So another Pythagorean Triple is (20,21,29).

Choose (x,y)=(5,3).

(5^2+3^2)^2=(5^2-3^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot3)^2

(25+9)^2=(25-9)^2+(30)^2

(34)^2=(16)^2+(30)^2

Another Pythagorean Triple is (16,30,34).

Let (x,y)=(5,4)

(5^2+4^2)^2=(5^2-4^2)^2+(2\cdot5\cdot4)^2

(25+16)^2=(25-16)^2+(40)^2

(41)^2=(9)^2+(40)^2

Another is (9,40,41).

A password is 4 characters long and must consist of 3 letters and 1 of 10 special characters. If letters can be repeated and the
Ne4ueva [31]

The number of possibilities for constructing the 4 characters long password with specified conditions is given by: Option C: 703,040

<h3>What is the rule of product in combinatorics?</h3>

If a work A can be done in p ways, and another work B can be done in q ways, then both A and B can be done in p \times q ways.

Remember that this count doesn't differentiate between order of doing A first or B first then doing other work after the first work.

Thus, doing A then B is considered same as doing B then A

We're specified that:

  • The password needs to be 4 characters long
  • It must have 3 letters and 1 of 10 special characters.
  • Repetition is allowed.

So, each of 3 characters get 26 ways of being 1 letter. (assuming no difference is there between upper case letter and lower case letter).

And that 1 remaining character get 10 ways of being a special character.

So, by product rule, this choice (without ordering) can be done in:

26 \times 26 \times 26 \times 10 = 175760 ways.

Now, the password may look like one of those:

  1. L, L, L, S
  2. L, L, S, L
  3. L, S, L, L
  4. S, L, L, L

where S shows presence of special character and L shows presence of letter.

Those 175760 ways are available for each of those four ways.

Thus, resultant number of ways this can be done is:

175760 \times 4 = 703040

Thus, the number of possibilities for constructing the 4 characters long password with specified conditions is given by: Option C: 703,040

A backyard pool has a concrete walkway around it that is 5 feet wide on all sides. The total are of the pool and the walkway is
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Pool:</u>

Width = x ft

Length = (x+6) ft

<u>Pool along with walkway:</u>

Width = x + 5 + 5 = (x + 10) ft

Length = x + 6 + 5 + 5 = (x + 16) ft

Total area of the pool with walkway = 950 sq.ft

length * width = 950

(x+16) * (x + 10) = 950

Use FOIL method,

x*x + x *10 + 16*x + 16 *10 = 950

x² + 10x + 16x + 160 -950 = 0   {Add like terms}

x² + 26x - 790 = 0
