Answer:

answer is no, not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

if it is a right triangle then the sum of the square of the two smaller legs will equal the square of the longest leg

does 8² + 12² equal 15²?

64 + 144 = 225

208 ≠ 225

answer is no, not a right triangle

Answer:

y = -2x + 150

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

120 - 100 / 15 - 25

20 / -10

= -2

y = -2x + b

100 = -2(25) + b

100 = -50 + b

150 = b

Please help! x^3 +y^3=9

Crank

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the derivative of both sides with respect to x, we get

$\dfrac{d}{dx}(x^3 + y^3) = \dfrac{d}{dx}(3)$

$\Rightarrow 3x^2 + 3y^2\dfrac{dy}{dx} = 0$

Solving for $\frac{dy}{dx}$ , we get

$\dfrac{dy}{dx} = -\dfrac{3x^2}{3y^2} = -\dfrac{x^2}{y^2}$
