The lengths of two sides of a right triangle are 12 inches and 15 inches. What is the difference between the two possible
lengths of the third side of the triangle? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
10.2 inches
24.0 inches
28.2 inches
30.0 inches

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is A

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets suppose that the third side is hypotenuse.

We will apply Pythagorean theorem:

c²= a²+b²

where,

a=12 inches

b=15 inches

Now substitute the values in the theorem:

c²=(12)²+(15)²

c²=144+225

c²=369

Take square root on both sides:

√c²=√369

c= 19.2 inches.

Now assume that the third side is a leg:

Here we will find the value of b.

a=12 inches

c= 15 inches.

b= ?

Now substitute the values in the theorem:

c²=a²+b²

(15)²=(12)²+b²

225=144+b²

Move the constant to the L.H.S

225-144=b²

81=b²

Take square root on both sides:

√81=√b²

9=b

Now we will find the difference of the third sides:

19.2-9 = 10.2

Thus the length of the third side is 10.2 inches

The correct option is A....

Answers

Answer:

The pairs are (13,15) and (-15,-13).

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is an odd integer, the very next odd integer will be n+2.

n+1 is even (so we aren't using this number)

The sum of the squares of (n) and (n+2) is 394.

This means

(n)^2+(n+2)^2=394

n^2+(n+2)(n+2)=394

n^2+n^2+4n+4=394               since (a+b)(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2

Combine like terms:

2n^2+4n+4=394

Subtract 394 on both sides:

2n^2+4n-390=0

Divide both sides by 2:

n^2+2n-195=0

Now we need to find two numbers that multiply to be -195 and add up to be 2.

15 and -13 since 15(-13)=-195 and 15+(-13)=2

So the factored form is

(n+15)(n-13)=0

This means we have n+15=0 and n-13=0 to solve.

n+15=0

Subtract 15 on both sides:

n=-15

n-13=0

Add 13 on both sides:

n=13

So if n=13 , then n+2=15.

If n=-15, then n+2=-13.

Let's check both results

(n,n+2)=(13,15)

13^2+15^2=169+225=394.  So (13,15) looks good!

(n,n+2)=(-15,-13)

(-15)^2+(-13)^2=225+169=394.  So (-15,-13) looks good!

Three terms of an arithmetic sequence are shown below. Which recursive formula defines the sequence? f(1) = 6, f(4) = 12, f(7) = 18 f (n + 1) = f(n) + 6 f (n + 1) = 2f(n) f (n + 1) = f(n) + 2 f (n + 1) = 1.5f(n)

Answers

Answer:

f(n + 1) = f(n) + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive formula gives any term in the sequence from the previous term.

the n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

f(n) = f(1) + (n - 1)d ← d is the common difference

Given

f(1) = 6 and

f(4) = 12, then

f(1) + 3d = 12, that is

6 + 3d = 12 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

3d = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

d = 2

To obtain a term in the sequence add 2 to the previous term, hence

f(n + 1) = f(n) + 2 ← recursive formula

The average rate of change of f from x=0 to x=4 is_____.

Give your answer as an integer or reduced fraction

Answers

Answer:

-5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f from x=0 to x=4 is_____.

This means we are being asked to evaluate [tex]\frac{f(4)-f(0)}{4-0}[/tex].

To do this we will need to find f(0) and f(4).

f(0) means what y-coordinate corresponds to x=0 on the curve.  Find x=0, the curve is above there, go straight up and see  y=5 there.  This means f(0)=5.

f(4) means what y-coordinate corresponds to x=4 on the curve. Find x=4, then curve is above there, go straight up and see y=0 there.  This means f(4)=0.

So we have:

[tex]\frac{f(4)-f(0)}{4-0}=\frac{0-5}{4-0}=\frac{-5}{4}[/tex].

In a certain card game you draw one card off a standard deck of 52 cards. If you draw a spade you get paid $12, if you draw a red Ace you get paid $20, and if you draw a red Queen you get paid $38. If you draw anything else, you get paid nothing. What should this game cost if it is to be a fair game? Use fractions in your work and then calculate the answer as a decimal rounded to 4 decimal places.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 2 red aces, 2 red Queens, and 13 spades.  That leaves 35 cards for everything else.

For the game to be fair, the cost must equal the expected value.  The expected value is the sum of each outcome times its probability.

C = (12) (13/52) + (20) (2/52) + (38) (2/52) + (0) (35/52)

C = 68/13

C ≈ 5.2308

- ABCD is a square

∴ AB = BC = CD = AD

∴ m∠A = m∠∠B = m∠C = m∠D = 90°

- DPC is equilateral triangle

∴ DP = PC = DC

∴ m∠DPC = m∠PCD = m∠CDP = 60°

- In the Δs APD , BPC

∵ AD = BC ⇒ sides of the square

∵ PD = PC ⇒ sides of equilateral triangle

∵ m∠ADB = m∠BCP = 30° (90° - 60° = 30) ⇒ including angles

The digits of a two-digit number sum to 8. When the digits are reversed, the resulting number is 18 less than the original
number. What is the original number?

Answers

Answer:

It's 53.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be xy so the digits are x and y, so:

x + y = 8...........(1)

Reversing the 2 digits we have the number 10y + x and this equals

10x + y - 18 so we have the equation:-

10x + y - 18 = 10y + x

9x - 9y = 18

x - y = 2...........(2)   Adding equations (1) and (2) we have:

2x = 10

x = 5

and y = 8 - 5 = 3.

So the original number is  53.

We can check this  as follows

Original number is 53 so the reverse is 35 .

53 - 35 = 18  which checks out.

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

P(A) is given to be 4/11 and P(B) is given to be 3/11. Using these values in the equation, we get:

Hope this helped you! :3

Answer:

D;Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/5 (x − 25) = 7

To solve this equation, we will first multiply both-side of the equation by -5

-5 × -1/5(x-25) =7 × 5

(At the left-hand side of this equation, the  5 we multiplied will cancel the 5 at the denominator, leaving us with just '1' since negative multiply by negative is positive), Hence our equation becomes;

(x - 25) = 35

x - 25 = 35

Then the next thing to do is to add 25 to both-side of the equation in other to get the value of your x

x -25 + 25 = 35 + 25

x=60

Therefore,  option D is the correct sequence of operation to follow to enable you solve the equation.

Answers

Answer: y=-ax(x-500)(x-1000)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The behavior of the x-intercept of a graph is given by the multiplicity of the zero

The required polynomial for the coaster is, y = -a·x·(x - 500)·(x - 1000)²

Reason:

The question relates to the introduction of characteristics to the graph of a polynomial through knowledge of the effect of parameters of a polynomial

Known parameter:

Parent function is, y = a·x·(x - 1000)

The polynomial crosses the x-axis when (x - 500) is a factor of the polynomial, therefore, we have;

y = a·x·(x - 500)·(x - 1000)

Given that the graph is to initially rise, the leading coefficient is negative, therefore, we have;

y = -a·x·(x - 500)·(x - 1000)

For the polynomial to come in smoothly to stop at y = 0, when x = 1,000 we have that a turning point of the polynomial will be located at x = 1,000, this is given by introduction of a bump on the x-axis at x = 1,000 with a factor of (x - 1,000)²

Therefore, the required polynomial is y = -a·x·(x - 500)·(x - 1000)²

The height of the above polynomial is progressively smaller as x tends towards 1,000, given that the factors, (x - 500), and (x - 1,000), becomes smaller.

for the level 3 course, examination hours cost twice as much as workshop hours and workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours. how id the lectures cost per hour? Total cost level 3 =$528

Answers

Answer:

The lectures cost is $7.33 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- For the level 3 course the examination hours cost twice as much

 as workshop hours

- The workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours

- There are examination hours , workshop hours and lecture hours

- There are 3 hr for examination, 24 hr for workshops and 12 hr

  for lectures

* Let the cost of the lecture hours is $x per hour

∴ The cost of the lecture hours is x per hour

∵ The cost of workshop hours is twice the cost of lecture hours

∴ The cost of the workshop hours is 2(x) = 2x per hour

∵ The cost of examination hours is twice the cost of workshop hours

∵ The cost of the workshop hours is 2x

∴ The cost of examination hours is 2(2x) = 4x per hour

- The cost of the level 3 is the sum of the costs of the lecture hours,

  workshop hours and examination hours

∵ There is 12 hours for lectures

∵ There is 24 hours for workshops

∵ There is 3 hours for examination

∵ The total cost of level 3 = 12(x) + 24(2x) + 3(4x)

∴ The total cost of level 3 = 12 x + 48 x + 12 x

∵ The total cost of level 3 = $528

∴ 12 x + 48 x + 12 x = 528

∴ 72 x = 528 ⇒ divide both sides by 72

∴ x = 7.33

∵ x is the cost of the lecture hours per hour

∴ The lectures cost is $7.33 per hour
