Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the adjacent side length in cm

opposite side is x + 2 cm

hypotenuse is x + 4 cm

x² + (x + 2)² = (x + 4)²

x² + (x² + 4x + 4) = (x² + 8x + 16)

x² - 4x - 12 = 0

(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0

so either

x - 6 = 0    x = 6

or

x + 2 = 0    x = -2

positive answer is x = 6 as negative length does not make sense

opposite side is 6 + 2 = 8

hypotenuse is 6 + 4 = 10

perimeter is 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 cm

Given the piece wise function show below, select all that are true​
NeTakaya

Answer:

Option (C) and (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given piecewise function is,

f(x) = 2x, x < 1

        5, x = 1

        x^{2}, x > 1

Option (A),

x = 5 means x > 1

So the function will be,

f(x) = x^{2}

f(5) = (5)²

     = 25

Therefore, f(5) = 1 is not correct.

Option (B),

x = -2 means x < 1

f(x) = 2x will be applicable.

f(-2) = 2(-2) = -4

Therefore, f(-2) = 4 is not correct.

Option (C)

For x = 1,

f(1) = 5

Therefore, f(1) = 5 is the correct option.

Option (D)

x = 2 means x > 1 and the function defined will be,

f(x) = x²

f(2) = 2²

     = 4

Therefore, f(2) = 4 will be the correct option.

Options (C) and (D) will be the answer.
