Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

5^2 + p^2 = (p+1)^2

25 + p^2 = p^2 + 2p + 1

25 = 2p + 1

24 = 2p

12 = p

Answer:

  (c)  p = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

You may recall that (5, 12, 13) is a Pythagorean triple. That would tell you ...

  p = 12

__

If you have not memorized a few useful Pythagorean triples, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for p. The sum of squares of the sides is the square of the hypotenuse:

  5² +p² = (p+1)²

  p² +25 = p² +2p +1

  24 = 2p . . . . . . . . subtract p²+1 from both sides

  p = 12 . . . . . . divide by 2

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Some of the Pythagorean triples commonly seen in algebra and geometry problems are ...

  (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17), (9, 40, 41)

Of course, multiples of these are used, too. For example, (6, 8. 10) is a multiple of the (3, 4, 5) triple.

Given the following absolute value function find the range.<br> ƒ(x) = |x + 5| - 8
Rina8888 [55]
Your absolute value is x+5 so next you would find the answer to 5 minus 8 which is -3 but since -3 and x are on the same side of the equation you have to add 3 to both sides. So the answer is 3

6. A square field has an area of 479 ft². What is the approximate length of a side of the field?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

22 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

All the lengths of a square are the same length.  

The area of a square is the length times the width.  The length and the width are the same measurement.  So, we are looking for the square root of 479.

\sqrt{479}

21.88606863 is as far as my calculator goes.  This is an irrational number.  That means that it never repeats or terminates as a decimal.  They tell us to answer to the nearest foot.  That would be 22 feet.
