The hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is 8 cm more than its shortest side. The third side is 1 cm shorter than the hypotenuse. Find the three sides of ths is triangle.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

hypotenuse = 13

shortest side = 5

third side = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sides a, b, and c, with c representing the hypotenuse of a right triangle, we can say that

a²+b² = c² using the Pythagorean Theorem.

We are given that the hypotenuse (c) = 8 cm more than the shortest side. Representing the shortest side as a, we can say that c= 8 + a. Then, the third side, which we can represent as b, is 1cm shorter than the hypotenuse, so c-1 = b

c= 8+a

c-1 = b

a²+b² = c²

One thing we can do is to solve for everything in terms of c and solve the third equation from there

c= 8+a

subtract 8 from both sides

c-8 = a

a²+b² = c²

(c-8)²+b² =c²

b = c-1

(c-8)² + (c-1)² = c²

expand

c²-16c + 64 + c² - 2c + 1 = c²

2c² - 18c + 65 = c²

subtract c² from both sides to make this an equation that we can more easily solve

c² - 18c + 65 = 0

To factor, we can find two numbers that add to (-18) and multiply to 65. Two numbers that work at 13 and 5, so we have

c²-13c-5c + 65 = 0

c(c-13) -5(c-13) = 0

(c-5)(c-13) = 0

Therefore, the hypotenuse, or c, is 5 or 13. Because a=c-8, if c=5, a would be negative 3. This is not possible, so c cannot be 5. Therefore, c=13, a=c-8=5, and b=c-1= 12

What is the solution of ?

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question would be x=12. Equation is worked out below

Step-by-step explanation:

5 /2 x−7= 3 /4 x+14

5 /2 x-3/4x − 7 =  3 /4 x-3/4x +14

7/ 4 x−7=14

7 /4 x−7+7=14+7

7/ 4 x=21

do the opposite of 7/4x (division)

7/4 / 7/4x = 21 / 7/4

4/7 / 7/4x (cross each other out) = 21 / 4/7

x=12

Answer:

[tex] \frac{5}{2}x - 7 = \frac{3}{4} x + 14 \\ \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{3}{4} x = 14 + 7 \\ \frac{7}{4} x = 21 \\ x = \frac{21 \times 4}{7} \\ x = 12[/tex]

Let y = √x, so the limit can be rewritten as

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{y\to\infty}\left(\frac{\sqrt{y^6+y^2}}{y^2+3} - \frac{\sqrt{y^4+1}}{y+4}\right)[/tex]

Now,

[tex]\sqrt{y^6+y^2} = \sqrt{y^2\left(y^4+1\right)} = y\sqrt{y^4+1}[/tex]

so we can rewrite the limit further as

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{y\to\infty}\left(\frac{y}{y^2+3} - \frac1{y+4}\right)\sqrt{y^4+1}[/tex]

Combine the rational terms:

[tex]\dfrac y{y^2+3} - \dfrac1{y+4} = \dfrac{y(y+4)-(y^2+3)}{(y^2+3)(y+4)} = \dfrac{4y-3}{(y^2+3)(y+4)}[/tex]

Then in the limit, we get

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{y\to\infty}\frac{(4y-3)\sqrt{y^4+1}}{(y^2+3)(y+4)} = \lim_{y\to\infty}\frac{(4y^3-3y^2)\sqrt{1+\dfrac1{y^4}}}{y^3+4y^2+3y+12} \\\\ = \lim_{y\to\infty}\frac{\left(4-\dfrac3y\right)\sqrt{1+\dfrac1{y^4}}}{1+\dfrac4y+\dfrac3{y^2}+\dfrac{12}{y^3}} = \boxed{4}[/tex]

If 2 < 20x - 13 < 3. what is one possible value for x?

Answers

Answer:

one possible value for x is 31/40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's isolate the 20x term.  Add 13 to all three terms:

2 + 13 < 20x - 13 + 13 < 3 + 13

and this simplifies to:

15 < 20x < 16

Dividing all three terms by 20, we get:

15/20 < x < 16/20

A fraction halfway between 15/20 and 16/20 is (31/20)/2, so

one possible value for x is 31/40.

Check by substituting this into the original equation and checking whether that equation is now true:

2 <20(31/40) - 13 < 3

or

2 < 31/2 < 16, or 2 < 15.5 < 16 (this is true, so 31/40 is a solution)

If p and q are all positive integers and the maximum integer not greater than

71

Step-by-step explanation:

As per question we have:

p > 0, q > 031p/8q ≤ 5 ⇒ 31p ≤ 40q

Since 31 and 40 have no common factors, the minimum values of p and q are 40 and 31 respectively.

So the minimum value of p + q is:

after 2 years the population of a town will be 33620 at the population growth rate of 2.5% pa find the present population of the town.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an exponential equation is [tex]y=a(b)^x[/tex] where y is the final count of the population after some time, x, goes by; a is the initial or starting amount of people (our unknown), and b is the growth rate. For us, y is 33620, the time is x = 2 years, and the growth rate is .025; but if we are growing we are expanding on the amount that we started with, so b = 100% + 2.5% = 102.5% and in decimal form, 1.025.

[tex]33620=a(1.025)^2\\33620=1.050625a[/tex] so

a = 32000

The initial population is 32000

Find the sum of a 22-term arithmetic sequence, where the first term is 7 and the last term is 240.

The sum of the arithmetic series is 2717.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

Answers

Answer:

16.7

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, a²+b²=c², with c representing the hypotenuse. In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the side opposite of the right angle, or the angle symbolized by the square. Here, the right angle is opposite of the side with a length of 20, so we can say that

c = 20

Therefore,

a²+b² = 20², with a and b representing the other two sides*. Because 11 is given as another side, we can say

11² + b² = 20²

121 + b² = 400

subtract 121 from both sides

279 = b²

square root both sides

b = √279 ≈ 16.7 as the third side

* for our purposes, it does not matter which side is a and which side is b

a. She spends $22 and earns $93.
b. She is given $38 and earns $42.
c. She spends $82 and earns $94.
d. She earns $580 and spends $422.

Answers

Answer:

D. She earns $580 and spends $422.

Step-by-step explanation:

The option of Monica earning $580 and spending $422 will allow her to have enough money to buy the new computer.

First, add $580 to the $284 that she already has saved:

284 + 580

= $864

Then, subtract $422 from this:

864 - 422

= $442

So, this option will leave her with $442. Since she only needed to save at least $399 to buy the computer, this means she has enough money for it.

The option that will let her buy the computer is D. She earns $580 and spends $422.
