Abigail would be 32 and Cynthia would be 24 now. Twenty years ago, Abigail was 12, and Cynthia was 4. 12 is 3 times as much as 4, and also 4+8=12.

How do you write 3 7/10 as a decimal
Leokris [45]

Answer:

3.7

Step-by-step explanation:

To change a fraction to a decimal, just divide the numerator with the denominator. Instead of placing the remainder over the divisor, continue to solve until it is answered (unless it's a repeating decimal.)

Divide 7 with 10:

7/10 = 0.7

Remember that there is a whole number, 3. Add that to the decimal you have gotten:

3 + 0.7 = 3.7

3.7 is your answer.

The sets of numbers 3, 4, 5 and 8, 15, 17 are Pythagorean triples. Use what you know about the Pythagorean Theorem and explain o
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

When we have 3 numbers, like:

a, b and c.

Such that:

a < b < c.

These numbers are a Pythagorean triplet if the sum of the squares of the two smaller numbers, is equal to the square of the larger number:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

This is equivalent to the Pythagorean Theorem, where the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

Now that we know this, we can check if the given sets are Pythagorean triples.

1)  3, 4, 5

Here we must have that:

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

solving the left side we get:

3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25

and the right side:

5^2 = 25

Then we have the same in both sides, this means that these are Pythagorean triples.

2) 8, 15, 17

We must have that:

8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2

Solving the left side we have:

8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289

And in the right side we have:

17^2 = 17*17 = 289

So again, we have the same result in both sides, which means that these numbers are Pythagorean triples
