Answer:

No, this can not be a triangle because if you use the Pythagorean theorem 5 squared plus 2 squared doesn't equal 10 squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 5 squared and 2 squared and add them, you then find the square root and that should equal 10, if not its not a triangle.

How can you find the unit rate and the slope

Solnce55 [7]

To find slope use the formula M = y2 - y1
-----------
x2 - y1
say you were given this (2,3) (-4,5) 2 would be x1 and 3 would be y1, -4 would be x2 and 5 would be y2 then just put it into the formula 5 - 3
--------
-4 - 2
which would be 2/ -6 which would simplify to 1/3

If a2 -2ab + b2 = 9 and a

inessss [21]

If a2 -2ab + b2 = 9 and a $\begin{gathered} a^2-2ab+b^2=9 \\ aStep 1 factorize[tex]\begin{gathered} a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2 \\ \end{gathered}$

then

[tex]\begin{gathered} (a-b)^2=9 \\ \sqrt{(a-b)^2}=\sqrt{9} \\ a-b=\pm3 \\ \\ aa-b=-3

A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9} B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10} C = {1, 5, 6, 7, 9} A ∩ (B ∪ C) =

vovikov84 [41]

A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}
B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
C = {1, 5, 6, 7, 9}

(B ∪ C) = {1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
so
A ∩ (B ∪ C) = {1, 5, 7 , 9}
