Answer:

the length of the third side is 12.1m

Step-by-step explanation:

by Pythagoras we know the relationship of the sides of a rectangular triangle that is given by the formula h^2 = l1^2 + l2^2

h = hypotenuse = 14m

l1 = leg1 = 7m

l2 = leg2

h^2 = l1^2 + l2^2

14^2 = 7^2 + l2^2

196 = 49 + l2^2

196 - 49 = l2^2

147 = l2^2

√147 = l2

12.124 = l2

rounding to the nearest tenth

l2 = 12.1

Algebra II

Distance Formula: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

Point (21, 13)

Point (3, 13)

Step 2: Find distance d

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d

Substitute in points [Distance Formula]: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(3-21)^2+(13-13)^2}$
[√Radical] (Parenthesis) Subtract: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(-18)^2+(0)^2}$
[√Radical] Evaluate exponents: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{324+0}$
[√Radical] Add: $\displaystyle d = \sqrt{324}$
[√Radical] Evaluate: $\displaystyle d = 18$

How many times will we move the decimal in the dividend? 0.9) 6,815.3

son4ous [18]

Step-by-step explanation:

So when you divide by powers of ten (ten times itself some number of times, like ten, one hundred, one thousand, etc.), the decimal moves to the left. For each power of ten, you move one place to the left. So if you divided a number by one hundred (10^2 or 10*10), you would move two places to the left.

What is the domain of the function shown in the

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

{x | x = -5, -3, 1, 2, 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

In a function, the domain values are all the possible values of input in a function. In order words, they are the x-values in a function, which are also referred to as independent variable.

In the mapping of the function above, all input values make up the domain of the function.

Thus, the domain is:

{x | x = -5, -3, 1, 2, 6}
