Answer:

14.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Pythagoras Theorem

The formula is given as:

c ² = a² + b ²

Where:

c = Hypotenuse

a = 8cm

b = 12 cm

Hence,

c² = 8² + 12²

c² = 64 + 144

c² = 208

We square root both sides

c = √(208)

c = 14.422205102 cm

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 14.4 cm

Two of your friends go bowling. One friend rents a pair of bowling shoes for $3 and bowls 3 games. The other friend brings his o
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: The cost of each game is $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the equations for each friend:

Friend 1:

Pays $3 for the shoes, and plays 3 games, then if X is the cost of each game, Friend 1 pays a total of:

$3 + 3*X

Friend 2:

This friend buys a soda for $0.50, and he plays 4 games, remember that the cost of each game was X. then this friend pays:

$0.50 + 4*X

And we know that both friends pay the exact same amount, then we can write:

$3 + 3*X = $0.50 + 4*X

And solve this for X.

We need to isolate X, then we can move all the terms with X to the right, and all the terms without X to the left:

$3 - $0.50 = 4*X - 3*X

$2.50 = (4 - 3)*X = X

This means the cost of each game is $2.50

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Step 2:

Part A

f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k

Part B

I'm not really sure about this part

Part C

f(x)=-12/25(x-25)^2+32

Step 3:

Part A

y = ax^2 + bx + c

Part B

f(x) = -12/25(x - 25)^2 + 32

Part C

a = -12/25

b = 0

c = 32

Zane is a dangerous fellow who likes to go rock climbing in active volcanoes. One time, when he was 202020 meters below the edge
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

f(x) = -4x + 20   

Refer attachment for graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: when Zane was 20 meters below the edge of a volcano. He heard some rumbling, so he decided to climb up out of there as quickly as he could. He managed to climb up 4 meters each second and get out of the volcano safely.

We have to graph Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds).

Let he takes x seconds to get out of the volcano.

and y be the distance covered by the volcano to reach Zane.

Then, to reach the edge of volcano,  

Thus, The equation that represent Zane's elevation relative to the edge of the volcano (in meters) as a function of time (in seconds). is given by

f(x) = -4x + 20     

At x = 0 the Zane will be at f(0) = 20 that is 20 meter below the volcano.

Thus points are (0,20)

and when x = 5 Zane will be escaped from volcano.

Thus points are (5,0)

Plot this and obtained the graph for the given equation as attached below.
