Find the missing side of each right triangle (Pythagorean’s #Theorem)

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Pythagorean's Theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so first you know that hypotenuse is the longest side or the opposite side from which the right angle is which in this case is the 6 so you are looking for a leg rather then the hypotenuse which means we are going to be doing subtraction.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

√27^2 - b^2 = 6^2

27 - b^2 = 36

-27            -27

         b^2 = 9

         b^2 = √9

         b = 3

There are six households in a rural community. Each household earns $40,000 per year. Suppose that a new resident builds a mansion in the community and that the income in the new household is $4 million per year. After the new resident arrives, the median household income has _____, and the mean household income has _____. increased; increased not changed; increased not changed; not changed increased; not changed

Answers

Answer:

Median income has not changed

Mean income has increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial number of houses = 6

Earning per household = $40,000

The initial mean :

$(40,000 * 6) / 6 = $40000

Initial median :

40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000

= 1/2(n+1)th term,

Median = 40000

A 7th household earns 4,000,000

Mean = ((40000*6) + 4,000,000) / 7 = $605,714

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term

40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 4000000

Median = 4th term = 40000

Answer:

  y = -5x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept can be found from ...

  b = y -mx

Using the first point, we have ...

  b = 2 -(-5)(-2) = -8

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . . . . for slope m and y-intercept b

  y = -5x -8

Identify JK. JK and JM are tangent to W.

Answers

Answer:

B. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the tangent theorem, when two tangents meet at an external point of a circle, the length of the two tangents are said to be equal in length.

Therefore:

JK = JM

Substitute

5x - 12 = x + 4

Collect like terms

5x - x = 12 + 4

4x = 16

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 4

✔️JK = 5x - 12

Plug in the value of x

JK = 5(4) - 12

JK = 20 - 12

JK = 8

Answers

Answer:

John has $15 and Alex has $33

Step-by-step explanation:

a systems of equations can be made from the information on the problem

x+y=48

x=2y+3

since x= 2y+3 substitute 2y+3 in the firat equation to get:

(2y+3)+y=48  -> 3y+3=48 -> 3y=45  -> y=15

plug in 15 for y in the second equation to solve for x

9. Find the length AD of the shape given below, giving your answer correct to 2
decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Length of AD = 10.47 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Triangle ACB is a right angle triangle

Length of AC = 14.8 m

Length of CB = 5.5 m

Length of CD = 6.4 m

Find:

Length of AD

Computation:

Using Pythagorean theorem

Base = √Hypoteneus² - Perpendicular²

Length of AB = √14.8² - 5.5²

Length of AB = 13.74 m

Length of DB = √6.4² - 5.5²

Length of DB = 3.27

Length of AD = Length of AB - Length of DB

Length of AD = 13.74 - 3.27

Length of AD = 10.47

Length of AD = 10.47 meter (Approx.)
