<u>Answer:</u>

  • The length of the hypotenuse is 17 km.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<em>Since this is a right triangle, we can use Pythagoras theorem to solve for c.</em>

  • c² = 15² + 8²
  • => c² = 225 + 64
  • => c² = 289
  • => c = 17

Hence, the length of the hypotenuse is 17 km.

Hoped this helped.

Answer:

17 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorm is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

In this problem we can call 8 km a and 15 km b.

Plug 8 and 15 into the pythagorean theorm to get 8^2 + 15^2 = c^2

This will give you 289=c^2

Take the square root of both sides to get c=17

Hope this helps!

Count back 25 minutes from 4:15 and you’ll get 3:50. The numbers on the clock are 5 minutes apart. It should be easy to solve just by using a standard clock

The length of a rectangle is 2 meters more than its width. The area of the rectangle is 80 square meters. What is the length and
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

A = L * W

Givens

W = W

L = W + 2

Solution

Area = L*W

Area = (W+2)*W = 80            Remove the brackets.

Area = W^2 + 2W = 80         Subtract 80 from both sides.

Area = w^2+2W-80=80-80  Combine

Area = w^2 +2W-80 = 0        Factor.

Area = (w+10)(w - 8) = 0

W + 10 = 0 won't work

W = - 10 which isn't possible

W- 8 = 0

W = 8

L = 8 + 2 = 10

The answer looks like A

Help its 11:28 due at 11:59 :((
Alja [10]

Answer:

y = 0.87x + 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Euros as a function of dollars means that euros is y and dollars are x.

We are given 2 points: (4, 3.5) and (10, 8.72)

slope = (8.72 - 3.5)/(10 - 4)

slope = 5.22/6 = 0.87

y = 0.87x + b

3.5 = 0.87(4) + b

b = 0.02

y = 0.87x + 0.02
