<u>Answer:</u>

  • The length of the hypotenuse is 36 miles.

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

<em>We can solve for 'a' using Pythagoras theorem. Let's solve it.</em>

  • 39² = a² + 15²
  • => 1521 = a² + 225
  • => a² = 1296
  • => a = 36

Hence, the length of the hypotenuse is 36 miles.

Hoped this helped.

What is the y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) = (x – 8)(x + 3)? (8,0) (0,3) (0,–24) (–5,0)
DiKsa [7]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  " (0, 24) " .
___________________________________________________________

Explanation:
___________________________________________________________

Given the quadratic function:
___________________________________________________________

          →  "  y = (x <span>− 8) (x + 3) "  ;   </span>←  Note:  Replace the "f(x)" with: "y" ; 

→  Find the "y-intercept".
___________________________________________________________

→  Note:  The "y-intercept" is the coordinate of the point(s) of the graph of the equation at which the graph crosses the "x-axis" when "x = 0" . 

   → So;  we set plug in "0" for "x" into our equation; and solve for "y" ; 

          → " y = (x − 8) (x + 3) " ;

          →   y = (0 − 8) (0 + 3)  ; 

          →   y = (-8) * (3)  ;  
 
          →   y = - 24 ; 
___________________________________________________________

So, the "y -intercept" of the <em><u>given</u></em> quadratic function is:
 
the point at which:  "x = 0 ; y = -24 " ;

      →  that is; the point  the coordinates:  " (0, - 24) " ;
___________________________________________________________
  →  which is:  Answer choice:  [C]:  " (0, - 24) " .

8x + 2y =16<br>standard form <br>1) m=<br>2 y - intercept x - intercept <br>​
mestny [16]

Answer:

m=-4

y-intercept=8

x-intercept=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attachment.

y-intercept=8

The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis.

x-intercept=2

The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis.

m=-4

If you do not know how to find slope by looking at graph, use slope formula.

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Choose 2 points. You may use the x and y intercepts.

(2,0) and (0,8)

(8-0)/(0-2)=8/-2=-4

Hope this helps!

Can you help with this?<br><br> Length x width x height
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

75/256 in³    <    64/125 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the volumes of the two 3-D figures:

For Figure 1:

Using the volume formula:

V = l × w × h

   = 6/8 × 5/8 × 5/8

   = (6/8 × 5/8) × 5/8

   = 30/64 × 5/8

V = 150/512

Simplify:

V = 75/256

So Figure 1's volume is 75/256 in³.

For Figure 2:

V = l × w × h

   = 4/5 × 4/5 × 4/5

   = (4/5 × 4/5) × 4/5

   = 16/25 × 4/5

   = 64/125

So Figure 2's volume is 64/125 in³.

Now, comparing the two volumes:

You can cross multiply the fractions to figure out which fraction is greater:

Figure 1                       Figure 2

<u> 75 </u>                =                <u> 64 </u>

256                                  125

75 (125)          =             256 (64)

9375               =             16384

So Figure 2 has the greater volume.

Your final result should be:

75/256 in³    <    64/125 in³
