Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

15x+10y =

we ca rewrite 15 as 3*5 and 10 as 2*5

3*5*x + 2*5*y =

both terms have a 5 so we factor it out

5 (3x + 2y)

The hypotenuse of the right triangle is 5 meter long. the shorter leg is 1 Meter shorter than the longer leg. find the side leng

Firlakuza [10]

Shorter leg = x

Longer leg = x +1

Length of the hypotenuse: 5 m

We can use the pythagorean theorem with the information given. Doing so, we have:

$\begin{gathered} a^2+b^2=c^2 \\ (x)^2+(x+1)^2=5^2\text{ (Replacing the values)} \\ x^2+x^2+2x+1=25\text{ (Raising both terms to the power of 2)} \\ x^2+x^2+2x=25-1\text{ (Subtracting 1 from both sides of the equation)} \\ 2x^2+2x=24\text{ (Adding like terms)} \\ 2x^2+2x\text{ }-24=0\text{ (Subtracting 24 from both sides of the equation)} \\ 2(x+4)(x-3)=0\text{ (Factoring)} \\ x1=-4\text{ (Since x=-4 makes the factor (x+4) equal to 0)} \\ x2=3\text{ (Since x=3 makes the factor (x}-3\text{) equal to 0)} \\ \text{ Since we need a positive solution x would be equal to 3} \end{gathered}$

So, the answers would be:

Shorter leg = 3 m

Longer leg = 4 m

Length of the hypotenuse: 5 m

Find the distance between the points given. (3, 4) and (4, 7) √(10) 3 2√2

Tom [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

givens

x1 = 3

x2 = 4

y1 = 4

y2 = 7

formula

d = sqrt( (x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2 )

solution

d = sqrt( (3 - 4)^2 + (4 - 7)^2 )

d = sqrt ( 1 + 3^2)

d = sqrt( 1 + 9)

d = sqrt( 10)
