Pythagoras question plz help

motikmotik

From the two right triangles, you can write the following equations using the Pythagorean theorem. Let's call that shared leg in the middle "y"

y^2 + b^2 = a^2
y^2 + c^2 = x^2

y^2 + b^2 = a^2
re-write this to get "y" alone for substitution.
y^2 = a^2 - b^2
substitute (a^2 - b^2) for y^2 in the other equation. y^2 + c^2 = x^2

a^2 - b^2 + c^2 = x^2

Now put in the values given for a,b,c to solve for x

(7.1)^2 - (5.6)^2 + (5.7)^2 = x^2
51.54 = x^2
square root
7.2 = x

Which matrix is equal to P + Q?

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:
$\begin{bmatrix}-1.1 & 9.5\\-5.7 & 0.8\\6.1 & 0.7\end{bmatrix}$

------------------------------------

Add up the corresponding elements

Row1,Column1: 6.1+(-7.2) = -1.1
Row1,Column2: 1.9+7.6 = 9.5
Row2,Column1: -7.5+1.8 = -5.7
Row2,Column2: 2.2+(-1.4) = 0.8
Row3,Column1: 3.8+2.3 = 6.1
Row3,Column2: -1.4+2.1 = 0.7

So that's why the answer is
$\begin{bmatrix}-1.1 & 9.5\\-5.7 & 0.8\\6.1 & 0.7\end{bmatrix}$

The student council at Sparrowtown High School is making T-shirts to sell for a fundraiser, at a price of $12 apiece. The costs,

alexira [117]

Answer: 36 shirts and costs $432
step by step:
first make an equation with the amount of sold shirts being equal to cost of making them -
12x=10x+72 where x is the number of shirts
then, subtract 10x from 12x to get the variable on the same side -
2x=72
finally, divide by 2 to isolate x
x=36 shirts
to figure out the cost, substitute 36 for x in 10x+72
10(36)+72= 360+72= $432
