Answer:

Yes, you have made a profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, profit just means that you end up having more money than you started with.

Since you started with 10 and got a 20 in exchange for it, you now have 10 dollars more than you previously did, meaning you made a profit.

A jeweler is making a triangular pendant. He has two sides of length 23 mm and 31 mm. What are the

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

38.60mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

We are given that the dimension of the triangles are length 23 mm and 31 mm

Let us assume that the triangle is a right angle triangle

Step two:

Applying the Pythagoras theorem we can find the third as

$z^2= x^2+y^2\\\\z^2= 31^2+23^2\\\\z^2= 961+529\\\\z^2= 1490\\\\$

square both sides

z= √ 1490

z= 38.60mm

Hence a possible dimension of the third side is 38.60mm

What is the vertex of the quadratic equation below? y=x^2-8x+1 Explanation?

scoray [572]

To find the vertex, you need to find the axis of symmetry first.

In order to find the axis of symmetry we have to do -b/2a.

In our case, the b is -8 and the a is 1.

Plug it in.

-(-8)/2(1)

8/2 = 4

Our axis of symmetry is 4.

Now, we plug it into the equation to find the rest of the vertex.

y = 4^2 - 8(4) + 1

y = 16 - 32 + 1

y = -16 + 1

y = -15

Put it together.

Our vertex is (4,-15).
