Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

It is close, but not exactly a right triangle.

If it were a right triangle, we would have ...

  21² +70² = 73²

We have instead ...

  441 +4900 ≠ 5329

  5341 ≠ 5329 . . . . . . . . not a right triangle

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

A sinusoidal model would be used

The kind of function that have consistency in the periodic rate of change is the Average rate of changes

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of model that would be used is sinusoidal model and this is because there is periodic change in the values given ( i.e the rate of changes given )

For percentage rate of changes :

starting from 0.9% there is an increase to 1.3% then a decrease to 1.1% and a further decrease to 1% before an increase to 1.3% and another decrease to 1%

For Average rate of changes:

starting from 2.9 there is a decrease to 2.4, then an increase to 3.7 and another decrease to 3.1 followed by an increase to 3.6 and a decrease back to 3.2

This relation ( sinusoidal model ) is best suited for a linear model because there is a periodic rate of change in the functions

The kind of function that have consistency in the period rate of change is the Average rate of changes

Logan is a land surveyor. He wants to determine d, the distance across a lake that cannot be directly measured. He draws this di
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The first option     (5.7km)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a right angle triangle and we know two of its sides we can easily find out the thirds side (the value of d) by using the Pathagoras Theorem. In our case 7 and d are our legs and the hypotenuse is equal to 9, so...

(Based on the Pathagoras Theorem)

c^{2} = a^{2}  + b^{2}

9^{2} = 7^{2} + d^{2}

d^{2} = 9^{2} - 7^{2} \\d^{2} = 81 - 49\\d^{2} = 32\\d = \sqrt{32}\\

d ≈ 5.7km

There for aproximate distance across the lake is equal to 5.7km

Find the discriminant to determine the number of solutions for the quadratic equation a^2-5a=6
Bingel [31]
A^2-5a = 6
a^2-5a-6 = 0
Discriminant = (-5)^2-4(1)(-6) = 49
Discriminant is positive so there are two solutions

An angle measures 64 degrees more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

13 and 77 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary = 90 degrees

Set an angle to x

x+(x+64)=90

2x+64=90

2x=26

x=13

angle measures: 13, 77 degrees
