Answer and work down below
The phytagorean theorem states a^2 + b^2 = c^2
And so your answer is C. (UV)^2+(VW)^2=(UW)^2, because 81+144=225
Since they are squares, the length of one sides square is equal to the area. UV, VW, and UW are all sides on a square. If you square them, you get their area, and then if you add the areas it will prove the phytagorean theorem correct.
Your answer is (in my opinion): 11.7in wide.
Just becuse the hight changed it does NOT mean that the width changed.
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: first number
y: second number
We now write the system of equations:
x + y = 20
y = 2x + 35
Solving the system we have:
x = -5
y = 25
Answer:
The numbers are:
x = -5
y = 25
Since the price is increasing by percentage, rather than a constant rate, we will be using the exponential equation format, which is y=ab^x (a = initial value, b = growth/decay)
Since the value was $590 in the year 2000, 590 will be our a variable.
Since the value is *increasing* by 35%, add 1 and 0.35 (35% in decimal form) together to get 1.35. 1.35 is going to be your b variable.
Putting our equation together, our equation is f(x) = 590(1.35)^x
