Answer:
x =12
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
16^2 + x^2 = 20^2
256 +x^2 = 400
Subtract 256 from each side
256-256 +x^2 = 400-256
x^2 =144
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(-x -3y) = 3( x +3y) = 3x+9y
Answer:
36 objects
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the value of x when t=9, so you're solving ...
9 = 0.007x^2 +0.003x
9 = 0.007(x^2 + 3/7x)
From here, we observe that an approximation is probably sufficient.
9/0.007 = x(x +3/7) . . . . . the expression on the right is nearly x^2
x ≈ 3/√.007 ≈ 35.9 ≈ 36
We can check:
.007(36)(36 3/7) = 9.18
.007(35)(35 3/7) = 8.68
To keep the computer busy for 9 seconds, it needs to sort 36 objects.
