Something that a right triangle is characterised by is the fact that we may use Pythagoras' theorem to find the length of any one of its sides, given that we know the length of the other two sides. Here, we know the length of the hypotenuse and one other side, therefor we can easily use the theorem to solve for the remaining side.
Now, Pythagoras' Theorem is defined as follows:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.
Given that we know that c = 24 and a = 8, we can find b by substituting c and a into the formula we defined above:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
24^2 = 8^2 + b^2 (Substitute c = 24 and a = 8)
b^2 = 24^2 - 8^2 (Subtract 8^2 from both sides)
b = √(24^2 - 8^2) (Take the square root of both sides)
b = √512 (Evaluate 24^2 - 8^2)
b = 16√2 (Simplify √512)
= 22.627 (to three decimal places)
I wasn't sure about whether by 'approximate length' you meant for the length to be rounded to a certain number of decimal places or whether you were meant to do more of an estimate based on your knowledge of surds and powers. If you need any more clarification however don't hesitate to comment below.
The scale factor for the first one is 2.25
And for the second one it’s 7
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
(x-1)(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
factors of four that add up to negative five
8) 5 + 4 + 2 = 11
Since there are 5 guavas, the correct answer is B. 5/11
9) 3 + 4 = 7
Since there are 4 blue papers, the correct answer is A. 4/7
10) Count all of the numbers and add them. There are 4 twos, 2 fives, and 1 three:
4 + 2 + 1 = 7
Since there are 4 twos, the correct answer is C. 4/7
Answer: the bus would be used 30 times for the monthly costs to be the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of times in a month for which the bus must be used so the total monthly cost is the same with the book as it is without it.
The bus fare without a coupon book is $1.50. This means that the total monthly cost of using the bus for x times without a coupon book is 1.5x
A coupon book cost $30.00 and with the coupon book, the fare is reduced $0.50. This means that the total monthly cost of using the bus for x times with a coupon book is
0.5x + 30
For the monthly costs to be the same,
1.5x = 0.5x + 30
1.5x - 0.5x = 30
x = 30
