Answer:

a = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find 'a' using Pythagoras theorem.

=> 4² = 2² + a²
=> 16 = 4 + a²
=> 12 = a²
=> a = √12
=> a = √2 x 2 x 3
=> a = 2√3
=> a = 2 x √3
=> a = 2 x 1.732
=> a = 3.464 = 3.5 (Estimated)

Hoped this helped.

Answer:x=−24/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifies to:

x−86x=79

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x−86x=79

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

x−86x=79

(x−8)*(9)=7*6x

9x−72=42x

Step 2: Subtract 42x from both sides.

9x−72−42x=42x−42x

−33x−72=0

Step 3: Add 72 to both sides.

−33x−72+72=0+72

−33x=72

Step 4: Divide both sides by -33.

−33x−33=72−33

x=−2411

If tu=18 and u=11 what is tv

yuradex [85]

If the point U is between points T and V, then the numerical length of TV is 29 units

<h3>How to determine the numerical length of segment TV?</h3>

From the question, we have the following lengths that can be used in our computation:

Length TU = 18 units
Length UV = 11 units

The above parameters and representations implies that the point U is between endpoints T and V

This also means that the length TV is longer than the other lengths TU and TV

So, we have the following length equation

TV = TU + UV

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

TV = 18 + 11

Evaluate the sum of the like terms in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

TV = 29

Hence, the numerical length of segment TV is 29 units

Please please answer this correctly I have to finish this today as soon as possible

Simora [160]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at where -2 is on the x-axis (the left side of the horizontal line), and go another half a box in, that is -2.5. But then go down one box from there, and plot the point. that is (-2.5,-1).

Next go half a box to the right and two boxes up, and plot your point there. that is (.5,2).

If f(x-3)=x^2-4x+5, what's f(1-x)

olganol [36]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{f(1-x)=x^2-4x+5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x-3)=x^2-4x+5\\\\f((x-3)+3)\to\text{put x + 3 to the equation of the function:}\\\\f(x-3+3)=(x+3)^2-4(x+3)+5\\\text{use the distributive property and}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\f(x)=x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2+(-4)(x)+(-4)(3)+5\\f(x)=x^2+6x+9-4x-12+5\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\f(x)=x^2+(6x-4x)+(9-12+5)\\f(x)=x^2+2x+2\\\\f(1-x)\to\text{put 1 - x to the equation of the funtion f(x):}\\\\f(1-x)=(1-x)^2+2(1-x)+2\\\text{use the distributive property and}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$

$f(1-x)=1^2-2(1)(x)+x^2+(2)(1)+(2)(-x)+2\\f(1-x)=1-2x+x^2+2-2x+2\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\f(1-x)=x^2+(-2x-2x)+(1+2+2)\\f(1-x)=x^2-4x+5$
