Answer:

42m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the rectangle ABCD. Since this is a rectangle, the triangles inside this rectangle (ΔACD and ΔABD) are both right triangles because of the definition of a rectangle. In addition, AB = CD and AC = BD because of the definition of a rectangle. Since AD = 15 (The Diagonal), you can say that because of Pythagorean Triples that AC = 9 and CD = 12 (3 : 4 : 5 = 9 : 12 : 15). Since we stated that AB = CD and AC = BD, we can say that the perimeter of ABCD is equal to 9 + 9 + 12 + 12. 9 + 9 + 12 + 12 is equal to 42.

Therefore: <u><em>Perimeter of ABCD = 42</em></u>

Answer:

47.6m.

Step by step solution:

Perimeter of a triangle = base + 2 . length____(1)

Area of a triangle = 1/2 . base . diagonal

108 = 1/2 . base . 15

multiplying both sides by 2:

216 = 15 . base

dividing both sides by 15:

base = 14.4m

But the diagonal divides the triangle into two

right angle triangles each with the same length (hypotenuse),base and diagonal(height).

Taking one right angle triangle:

And using pythagoras theorem;

length² = base² + diagonal ²

length² = 7.2² + 15²

Note: Base of each right angle triangle is 7.2 which would sum up to be 14.4 the base of the full triangle.

length² = 276.84

taking the square root of both sides:

length = 16.6m

Putting the values of the base and length into equation (1).

Perimeter of the triangle = 14.4 + 2 . 16.6

Note: We are dealing with the whole triangle

now hence the base is 14.4m.

Perimeter of the triangle = 14.4 + 33.2 = 47.6m.

Hi there!

{x}^{2}  \times  {x}^{5}  = x {}^{2 + 5}  =  {x}^{7}

We can also write is out entirely.
{x}^{2}  = x \times x
{x}^{5}  = x \times x \times x \times x \times x
{x}^{2}  \times  {x}^{5}  = \\  (x \times x ) \times (x \times x \times x \times x \times x) =  \\ x \times x \times x \times x \times x \times x \times x =  \\  {x}^{7}

Which system of equations does this graph represent?
jeyben [28]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can find the equation of the parabola. The standard form of a parabola is ax^2 + bx + c,

where c is the y-intercept. The y-intercept on the graph is -5, and every option starts with x^2, so the equation must be x^2 - 5. This rules out options 3 and 4.

Next, we can find the equation of the line. The options are all given in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept on the graph is 1, and option 1 has 1 in the place of b. Therefore, option 1 is the answer.
