Answer:

The length of the missing leg is six

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that this is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagoras theorem

12^2+x^2=sqrt180^2

144+x^2=180

x^2=36

x=6

Therefore, the length of the missing leg is six.

Answer:

Taking the above as a right angled triangle...

Pythagoras' rule can be applied to get the Missing side.

It goes...

Hyp² = Opp² + Adj²

Which translates to Hypotenuse, Opposite and Adjacent respectively.

Hyp = √180

Opp= 12

So we're missing Adj

Making adj the subject.

Adj = √ Hyp² – Opp²

= √[(√180)² – (12)²

= √ [ 180 – 144]

= √36

Adj = 6ft.

Find the equation that Passes through the point (2,3) and is parallel to the line y=5x-9. First find the equation of the line in

KATRIN_1 [288]

Since It's parallel to y=5x-9 the slope of this new line is 5
so the equation looks like y=5x+b
to find be we just replace x by 2 and y by 3
3=10-b so b = -7
the equation is y=5x-7

PLEASE HELP Complete the table with the number of sit-ups you have to do sunday so that the mean number of sit-ups per day is 10

klemol [59]

The complete table will be:

$Monday - 100\\ Tuesday-65\\ Wednesday- 120\\ Thursday-150\\ Friday-90\\ Saturday- 0\\ Sunday-175$

Explanation

Suppose, the number of sit-ups in Sunday is $x$

Mean is the simple average of some numbers. For finding the mean number of sit-ups per day, we need to divide the 'total number of sit-ups' by the 'total number of days'.

Here the total number of days is 7 and the total number of sit-ups for 7 days $= 100+65+120+150+90+0+x= 525+x$

Given that, the mean number of sit-ups per day is 100. So, the equation will be...

$\frac{525+x}{7}=100\\ \\ 525+x=700\\ \\ x= 700-525=175$

So, the number of sit-ups you have to do Sunday is 175.

WILL GIVE BRANLIEST!!! Pls help! Determine the coordinates of the point on the straight line y=3x+1 that is equidistant from the

iren [92.7K]

Let , coordinate of points are P( h,k ).

Also , k = 3h + 1

Distance of P from origin :

$d=\sqrt{h^2+k^2}$

Distance of P from ( -3, 4 ) :

$d=\sqrt{(h+3)^2+(k-4)^2}$

Now , these distance are equal :

$h^2+(3h+1)^2=(h+3)^2+(3h+1-4)^2\\\\h^2+(3h+1)^2=(h+3)^2+(3h-3)^2$

Solving above equation , we get :

$P=(\dfrac{16}{21},\dfrac{23}{7})$

Hence , this is the required solution.

The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of x for the equation

mafiozo [28]

Step 1: 6x - 2x - 5 = -6 + 21
Step 2: 6x - 2x - 5 = 15
Step 3: 4x - 5 = 15

The next step would be to add 5 to both sides of the equation.
so Step 3: 4x - 5 = 15 .......add 5 to both sides would make
Step 4: 4x = 20

So after the next step you would have 4x = 20

Hope this helps! :)
