Answer:
a = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
a² + 9² = 12²
a² + 81 = 144 ( subtract 81 from both sides )
a² = 63 ( take square root of both sides )
a = 
Answer:A. slope: 7, y-intercept: 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Transform the equation into slope intercept form, y=7x+10. In the form y=mx+b, m = slope and b = y-intercept
Answer:
c.
Step-by-step explanation:
X²-9x=36
minus 36 both sides
x²-9x-36=0
what 2 numbers multiply to -36 and add to -9
-12 and 3
(x-12)(x+3)=0
set to zero
x-12=0
x=12
x+3=0
x=-3
the number is either -3 or 12
