Answer: z = 
Step-by-step explanation:
To find <em>z</em>, you must set up a proportion to solve.
To find the altitude of a special right triangle, the formula is:

You can use <em>5</em> as <em>a</em> and <em>2</em> as <em>b</em> to complete the proportion:

Next, to solve:
<u>Step 1</u>: Cross-multiply.

(5)*(2) = z*z
10 = z²
<u>Step 2</u>: Take square root.
10 = z²
√10 = z

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(4x + 3)(3x - 4)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
4x(3x - 4) + 3(3x - 4) ← distribute both parenthesis
= 12x² - 16x + 9x - 12 ← collect like terms
= 12x² - 7x - 12
The coefficient of the x- term is - 7 → B

Answer:
1) 5.44, 2) 3.9
Step-by-step explanation:
1) a/b + 2b - a^2 when a = 1.4 and b = 0.2
plug in the values:
1.4/0.2 + 2(0.2) - (1.4)^2 = 7 + 0.4 - 1.96 = 5.44
2) a[b-2c]^3 - d/e when a = 2, b = -0.75, c = -1, d = 0, e = -12 5/7 (rewritten to -89/7 = 12.71)
again, plug in the values:
2[-0.75-2(-1)]^3 - 0/12.71 = 2[1.25]^3 - 0 = 2[1.95] = 3.9
