Answer:

No. They cannot be the measures of the sides of a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagorean Theorem (a² + b² = c²) we can find out if these measures match.

The order for a and b doesn't matter, but the measure for c does. c is the hypotenuse, the longest side of a triangle. With these measures, 10 will be the hypotenuse because it is the longest.

6² + 9² = 10² If this is true, then the measures can be sides of a triangle.

117 = 100 6 squared plus 9 squared equals 117 but 10 squared equals 100. They do not match so the answer is no.

Henry and his family are eating at a rotating restaurant at the top of a tower. The restaurant rotates clockwise 90° every 15 mi

frutty [35]

Answer:

The table of Henry's family will be at (4, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that the initial coordinates of Henry's family is at the coordinates (-4, 4). Each 15 minutes the restaurant will rotate 90° every 15 minutes. If we follow the Cartesian plane and the center of the restaurant being at (0, 0) we know that the table will be situated at the (4, 4) coordinates of the restaurant after the first rotation. After the 30 minute mark, the restaurant rotates one more time and moves the table of Henry's family at the (4, -4) coordinates of the restaurant as the center of the restaurant will never move.

How do I solve this system using substitution: y = x + 4; y = 3x

Olin [163]

You just do
3x=x+4
subtract x from both sides
2x=4
divide 2 from both sides
x=2
y=2+4
y=6
(x,y)= (2,6)
