Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is just playing with the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 with a and b as legs and c as the hypotenuse.

Let's say a is equal to 1500 so then c is 4 times b

1500^2 + b^2 = (4b)^2  Now we just treat this like a normal algebraic expression

2,250,000 = 16b^2 - b^2

2,250,000 = 15b^2

150,000 = b^2

sqrt(150,000) = b

100sqrt(15) = b

You can check this now.

1500^2 + sqrt(150,000)^2 = c^2

sqrt(2,250,000 + 150,000) = c

sqrt(2,400,000) = c

400sqrt(15) = c Which fits the requirement of c = 4b

I Need help plz help me i Sony understand

A. 2, 200, 2000  

This is multiplying the number by 10 each time. In other words, just adding an extra zero to the end of it. 

b. 340, 0.034 

This one is moving the decimal place forward two places. 10^-2, so removing two zeros from the end of it until eventually you reach decimals and have to move the decimal forward twice, which is essentially what you're doing here.

c. 85700, 857, 0.857

In this one, you remove one zero from the end. You move the decimal forward once when you reach the decimals. This would be 10^-1

d. 444000, 4440000, 44400000

In this one, you multiply each one by 10. Add on a zero to each one.

e. 0.095, 9500000, 950000000

You multiply this one by 10^2, so the number increases.

-24-(-6)+(-31)<br> step by step<br> be sure to simplify first
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

-49

Step-by-step explanation:

rule of thumb: whenever you have two negatives, they equal a positive! when you have one negative and one positive, it is a negative!

  1. let's start by going from left to right :))
  2. -24 -(-6) + (-31)
  3. -(-6) is actually + 6!
  4. -24 + 6 + (-31)
  5. +(-31) would be -31 because one - and one + is a -
  6. -24 + 6 - 31
  7. -18 - 31
  8. -49

Which rule yields the dilation of the figure STUV centered at the origin?
Stels [109]

The length of ST is 10 units, the length of S't" is 2 units.


This means the dilated figure was decreased by a factor of 5.

Because it is smaller it would be a scale factor of 1/5 ( 0.2 as a decimal).
