Answer:

b=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula~ 1/2*b*h

1/2*15*b=120

7.5b=120

b=120/7.5

b=16

(you can substitute the value to check-i've done it below)

1/2*16*15=?

if you work it out, the ans will be 120, therefore the ans is correct!

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 14 centimeters long. One of the legs of the triangle is 6 centimeters. What is the length
Fed [463]
Use Pythagorean theorem to solve.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + b ^2 = 14^2
36 + b^2 = 196
Subtract 36 from both sides.
b^2 = 196-36
b^2 = 160
Take the square root of both sides.
b = sqrt 160
As a decimal
b = 12.649
As a simplified radical
b = 4sqrt10

What is 778,400,000 in scientific notation?
FinnZ [79.3K]

When working with very large or very small numbers, scientists, mathematicians, and engineers use scientific notation to express these quantities. Scientific notation is a mathematical abbreviation, based on the idea that it is easier to read an exponent than to count many zeros in a number. Very large or very small numbers need less space when written in scientific notation because the position values ​​are expressed as powers of 10. Calculations with long numbers are easier to do when using scientific notation

I'm completely lost help
e-lub [12.9K]
I can't see the line very well, but the initial value, also known as the y-intercept, is 1. I would tell you the rate of change but like I said I can't see the line very well, but count across from where the line touches the y axis until you can go up and hit a corner of a square on the grid and the line.. if that makes sense. I hope this helps!
