How many centimeters long is a leg of an isosceles right triangle if its hypotenuse has a length of 8√2 centimeters?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The leg is 8 cm long

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles right triangle has the length of its hypotenuse and opposite equal

Let us call the length x

From Pythagoras’ , the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus, we have ;

x^2 + x^2 = (8 √2)^2

2x^2 = 128

x^2 = 128/2

x^2 = 64

x= √64

x = 8 cm

Find x, y and ab and how to check if the answer is right ​
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

  x = 2, y = -2, AB = 142

Step-by-step explanation:

The fact that X is the midpoint gives you two relations:

  AX = XB

  AX + XB = AB

Since you have two unknowns, this number of equations is sufficient to find their values. Substituting the given expressions in the above equations, you have ...

  • 8(3x+5) -3(y-7) -22x = 5x +y +23 -4(x-12)
  • 8(3x+5) -3(y-7) -22x + 5x +y +23 -4(x-12) = 2x -5y +128

Simplifying the first of these can make simplifying the second one easier.

  24x +40 -3y +21 -22x = 5x +y +23 -4x +48

  2x -3y +61 = x +y +71 . . . . . . we can use this simplification

  x -4y = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract x+y+61

Now, we can simplify the second equation to ...

  2x -3y +61 +x +y +71 = 2x -5y +128

  3x -2y +132 = 2x -5y +128 . . . . . simplify the left side

  x +3y = -4 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -2x+5y-132

Then the two equations we need to solve are ...

  • x -4y = 10
  • x +3y = -4

Subtracting the second from the first, we get

  -7y = 14

  y = -2

Substituting into the first of these simplified equations, we get

  x -4(-2) = 10 . . . . substitute for y

  x +8 = 10 . . . . . . .evaluate

  x = 2 . . . . . . . . . .subtract 8

So, the solution is (x, y) = (2, -2).

Now, the values of AX and XB are ...

  AX = 2x -3y +61 = 2·2 -3(-2) +61 = 71

  XB = x+y+71 = 2 +(-2) +71 = 71 . . . . . . . . matches AX, a good sign

  AB = 2x -5y +128 = 2·2 -5(-2) +128 = 142 . . . . = AX+XB, another good sign

The desired values are x = 2, y = -2, AB = 142.

_____

You check the answer by filling the values into the expressions given in the problem statement and seeing if you get consistent results. Here, we used the simplified expressions, rather than the original expressions, so if we did the simplification wrong, we may have the wrong answer. It is always best to use the original equations. (A machine solver working with the original equations confirms our result, so "confidence is high.")

A fair spinner A is spun 7 times. What is the probability of getting “Green” at least 5 times if there are 8 colors separated eq
sasho [114]

Answer:

6\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, so basically I'm pretty sure that you add all of them together and put it as a fraction over 3 so basically  \frac{20}{3} then simplify it into 6\frac{2}{3}

A container of beads contains: 8 red beads, 6 yellow beads, and 6 green beads. A bead will be drawn from the basket and replaced
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Because of probability, a green or red bead would be drawn 14/20 times because there are 20 total beads and adding together the numbers for green and red. From this, if you multiply by 3/3 you can see that 42/60 times it will be a green bead. A reasonable prediction for green beads would then be 42 times. Hope it helps :D
