Answer:
c = 42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The legs of the triangle are a and b and the hypotenuse is c
Let a be the shorter leg
The hypotenuse is 5 more than the longest leg
c = b+5
The shortest leg is 20
a = 20
We can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 +b^2 = c^2
Substituting in what we know from above
20 ^2 + b^2 = (b+5)^2
FOIL (b+5)^2 = b^2 +5b+5b +25 = b^2+10b+25
400 + b^2 = b^2+10b+25
Subtract b^2 from both sides
400+b&2-b^2 = b^2 -b^2 +10b+25
400 = 10b+25
Subtract 25 from both sides
400-25 = 10b+25-25
375 = 10b
Divide by 10
375/10 = 10b/10
37.5 = b
But we want to find c
c=b+5
c = 37.5+5
c = 42.5
What you would do to “simplify” the equation is 18000-100 then divide by 50. The answer would be 358. Hoped this helped!
124, just times 2 because it said bisect
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Chance is also referred to as probability
probability = Number of event/Total samples space
If there are 6 black socks,8 white socks,2 red socks, and 4 blue socks in a drawer, the total number of socks will be the sample space
Sample space = 6 + 8 + 2 + 4
Sample space = 20socks
Total number of blue socks is the event
Number of event = 4 blue socks
Chance that the socks is blue = n(E)/n(S)
Chance that the socks is blue = 4/20
Chance that the socks is blue = 1/5
By using the information given on the graph, we can see that a = 3.
<h3>
How to find the value of a?</h3>
Here we have an exponential of the form:
And by looking at the graph, it passes through (0, 4) and (2, 36), so we can write:
From the first equation we get that p = 4, replacing that on the second one we get:
So we conclude that a = 3.
