Answer:

B. √96 in, √24 in, √120 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean to verify:

The square of the two smallest lengths is same as the square of the largest side

A. 108 + 72 = 180 ≠ 192, no
B. 96 + 24 = 120, yes
C. 132 - 24 = 108 ≠ 120, no
D. 168 - 72 = 96 ≠ 84, no

Correct choice is B

Someone please help!!

The answer I got was 2,423,000 million square miles. If there is a choice that says that then it’s the answer. If not, I’m probably wrong.

Hope this helps!

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

$130.2845\leq h\leq 137.7245$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an inequality that relates the height h, in centimeters, of an adult female and the length f, in centimeters, of her femur by the equation

$|h - (2.47f + 54.10)| \leq 3.72$

If an adult female measures her femur as 32.25 centimeters, we can determine the possible range of her height by plugging f = 32.25cm into the modelled equation as shown:

$|h - (2.47(32.25) + 54.10)| \leq 3.72\\|h - (79.9045 + 54.10)| \leq 3.72\\|h - (134.0045)| \leq 3.72\\$

If the modulus function is positive then:

$h - 134.0045 \leq 3.72\\h \leq 3.71+134.0045\\h\leq 137.7245$

If the modulus function is negative then:

$-(h - 134.0045) \leq 3.72\\-h+134.0045 \leq 3.72\\-h\leq 3.72-134.0045\\-h\leq -130.2845\\$

multiply through by -1

$-(-h)\geq -(-130.2845)\\h\geq 130.2845\\130.2845\leq h$

combining the resulting inequalities, the estimate of the possible range of heights will be $130.2845\leq h\leq 137.7245$

A diameter of a circle has enpoints (-2, 10) and (6, -4) in the standard (x, y) coordinate plane. What is the center of the circ

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The center of the circle is $C(x,y) = (2, 3)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the segment between the endpoints. We can determine the location of the center by this vectorial expression:

$C(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot R_{1}(x,y)+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot R_{2}(x,y)$ (1)
