Answer:

41.6 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle formula: c^2 = a^2 + b^2

c is the hypotenuse side of the triangle

a and b are the legs of the triangle.

Find the hypotenuse : c^2 = (24)^2 + (34)^2

c = square root of ( (24)^2 + (34)^2)

c = square root of ( 576 + 1,156)

c = 41.6173

I am a number greater than 40,000 and less than 60,000. My ones digit and tens digit are the same. My ten-thousands digit is 1 l

jarptica [38.1K]

I am a number greater than 40,000 and less than 60,000:

40,000 < n < 60,000

This means that:

n = 10,000n₁ + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄

And also:

4 ≤ n₁ < 6

0 ≤ n₂ ≤ 9

0 ≤ n₃ ≤ 9

0 ≤ n₄ ≤ 9

My ten thousands digit is 1 less than 3 times the sum of my ones digit and tens digit:

n₁ = 3*2n₄ - 1

n₁ = 6n₄ - 1

This means that:

n = 10,000*(6n₄-1) + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄

n = 60,000n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄

n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃

My thousands digit is half my hundreds digit, and the sum of those two digits is 9:

n₂ = 1/2 * n₃

n₂ + n₃ = 9

Therefore:

n₂ = 9 - n₃

Therefore:

9 - n₃ = 1/2 * n₃

9 = 1/2 * n₃ + n₃

9 = 1.5 * n₃

Therefore:

n₃ = 6

If n₃=6, n₂=3.

This means that:

n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000*3 + 100*6

n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 3,000 + 600

n = 60,011n₄ - 6,400

Therefore:

0<n₄<2, so n₄=1.

If n₄=1:

n = 60,011 - 6,400

n = 53,611

Answer:

53,611
