Mathematics

madreJ [45]3 years ago

Answer:

Adjacent = 9.75 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Hypothenus = 12 inches

Opposite = 7 inches

To find the other leg i.e adjacent, we would use Pythagorean' theorem given by the formula;

Hypothenus² = opposite² + adjacent²

Substituting into the formula, we have;

12² = 7² + adjacent²

144 = 49 + adjacent²

Adjacent² = 144 - 49

Adjacent² = 95

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

Adjacent = 9.75 inches.

Therefore, the other leg is 9.75 inches.

Elza [17]

Answer:

8) Real; Rational

9) Real; Rational; Integer; Whole; Natural

10) Real; Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

Real numbers consists of the subsets:

Irrational Numbers:

Irrational numbers is the subset complementary to rational numbers. It includes numbers such as √(2) or π. These numbers do not repeat nor terminate.

Rational Numbers:

Rational numbers are all the others. They include the integers as well as the repeating and terminating decimals.

Integers:

Integers include the entire set of whole numbers and the negative numbers. This subset does not include decimals nor fractions. Thus, the integers are: ...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3... etc.

Whole Numbers:

Whole numbers is the set of natural numbers that <em>includes</em> 0. So, whole numbers are: 0, 1, 2, 3... and so on.

Natural Numbers:

Natural numbers or the counting numbers are all the positive, non-decimal numbers. These are 1, 2, 3... and so on. This set does not include 0.

8) 1.\overline{3}=1.3333...

The given number is not natural, whole, nor an integer because it is a decimal. It repeats, so it belongs to the rational numbers subset.

9) \sqrt4=2

The square root of 4 is simply 2. 2 is a natural number. Because of this, this means that 2 is also a whole number, integer, and a rational number.

10)-3/4=-0.75

The given number is a fraction and it does not reduce to a whole number, so it's not a natural number, whole number, nor an integer. It does terminate, so it belongs to the rational numbers subset.

Why is 4b-7-3b+9 equal to b+2
rodikova [14]
The first expression can be simplified by combining like terms.

First, the terms "4b" and "-3b" can be combined to form "b"
Then, the terms "-7" and "9" can be combined to form "2"

Finally, we simply put these two final terms together, to form "b+2"

Hence, 4b-7-3b+9 is equal to be + 2.

Hope this helps!
