Answer:

  • (6, 8, 10) right
  • (8, 15, 17) right
  • (5, 12, 13) right

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be helpful to memorize a few of the Pythagorean triples that show up in Algebra problems. Their multiples also form right triangles.

  (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17), (9, 40, 41)

The triple (6, 8, 10) is the first one of these, multiplied by 2 inches.

The only triple that is a sequence of consecutive integers is (3, 4, 5), so you know immediately that (4, 5, 6) does not form a right triangle.

Of course, you can check any of them to see if the squares of the smaller two numbers total the square of the larger number:

  4² +5² = 16 +25 = 41 ≠ 6² . . . . . (4, 5, 6) is not a right triangle

Staals half
1 gram left
0.3 grams left
half lives are normally written in years
it goes likt this

A=P( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{t}{h}
A=final amount
P=initila amount
t=time elapsed
h=time half life is (same units as time)

let's use days as the units of time


we are given
initial amount=1gram
final amount=0.3gram
time=4 days

so
0.3=1( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{4}{h}
solve for h
0.3=( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{4}{h}
take the ln of both sides
ln(0.3)=ln( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{4}{h}
ln(0.3)=\frac{4}{h}ln( \frac{1}{2})
times both sides by h
hln(0.3)=4ln( \frac{1}{2})
divide both sides by ln(0.3)
h= \frac{4ln( \frac{1}{2}) }{ln(0.3)}
use calculator
h=2.30287
3 sig figs
h=2.303 days

Answer:

The equation 2d + 18 = 24 can help find the number of days Jerry has been doing sit-ups.

Step-by-step explanation:

During the first day, Jerry did 18 sit-ups, and he proceeded to do 2 more sit-ups each following day, so the expression to represent this situation is 2d + 18. Because he did 24 sit-ups today, to find the number of days he did sit-ups, the equation to solve is 2d + 18 = 24.
