Answer:

A proportion is simply a statement that two ratios are equal. It can be written in two ways: as two equal fractions a/b = c/d; or using a colon, a:b = c:d. The following proportion is read as "twenty is to twenty-five as four is to five."

Which combination of integers can be used to generate the Pythagorean triple (7,24,25)?
allochka39001 [22]
A Pythagorean triple is a set of thre integer numbers, a, b and c that meet the Pythgorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Use Euclide's formula for generating Pythagorean triples.

This formula states that given two arbitrary different integers, x and y, both greater than zero, then the following numbers a, b, c form a Pythagorean triple:

a = x^2 - y^2

b = 2xy

c = x^2 + y^2.


From a = x^2 - y^2, you need that x > y, then you can discard options A and D.

Now you have to probe the other options.

Start with option B, x = 4, y = 3

a = x^2 - y^2 = 4^2 - 3^2 = 16 -9 = 7

b = 2xy = 2(4)(3) = 24

c = x^2 9 y^2  = 4^2 + 3^2 = 16 + 9 = 25

Then we could generate the Pythagorean triple (7, 24, 25) with x = 4 and y =3.

If you want, you can check that a^2 + b^2 = c^2; i.e. 7^2 + 24^2 = 25^2

The answer is the option B. x = 4, y = 3

Please help me ASAP
Colt1911 [192]
First,let's find the slope-intercept form of equation which is y=mx+b, where y and x are coordinates, m is the slope and ,c is the y-intercept
y+6.75=0.25(x-1)                                                   y=0.25(2)-6.5
y+6.75-6.75=0.25x -0.25 -6.75                            y=-6
y=0.25x-6.5   
(2,-6)  is the only correct answer I think is on the line with this equation.
