Which equation can be used to find x,the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle

Which Equation Can Be Used To Find X,the Length Of The Hypotenuse Of The Right Triangle

Answers

Answer 1
a^2 + b^2 = c^2...a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
18^2 + 24^2 = x^2 <==

** the hypotenuse is always the longest side..it is the side opposite the right angle

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]x^{2}=24^{2}+18^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Pythagoras Theorem states that in a right triangle

[tex]c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}[/tex]

where

c is the hypotenuse

a,b are the legs of the right triangle

In this problem we have

[tex]a=24\ units, b=18\ units, c=x\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]x^{2}=24^{2}+18^{2}[/tex]

6 inches is the answer
P= 2( L+W)

Answer: 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The perimeter of the rectangle = 40 inches

Let the unknown side be w.

And the bottom side l=14 in.

We know that the perimeter of rectangle is given by :-

[tex]\text{Perimeter}=2(l+w)\\\Rightarrow40=2(14+w)\\\Rightarrow\frac{40}{2}=14+w\\\\Rightarrow20=14+w\\\Rightarrow\ w=20-14)\\\Rightarrow w=6\ in.[/tex]

Hence, the  the length of w = 6 inches.

A rope stretches directly depending on the load it must carry. If a load of 8 pounds stretches the rope 9.6 inches, the constant of proportionality is equal to:

8(9.6)
8/9.6
9.6/8

Answers

"Our proportionality constant would be how much the rope stretches versus the weight being hung.  This is set up by simply dividing the two numbers.  

9.6 inches / 8 pounds  

or for every pound hung, it will stretch 1.2 inches  so we know if it stretches 6 inches, we can set up an equation  6 inches = 1.2 [inches/pound] * pounds solve for weight  to get 5 pounds being hung from the rope."

Answer: 9.6 inches / 8 pounds

A number line contains points Q, R, S, and T. Point Q is on the coordinate 24, R is on the coordinate 28, S is on the coordinate 29, T is on the coordinate 42. Find the probability that a point chosen at random on QT is on ST. Express your answer as a percent.

25%
42.2%
50%
72.2%

Answers

This probability is going to be the length of segment ST divided by the length of QT so

P(ST)=(42-29)/(42-24)

P(ST)=13/18

As a percentage:

(p/100)=(13/18)

p=1300/18%

p=650/9%

p≈72.2%  (to nearest tenth of a percent)

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Point Q is on the coordinate 24, R is on the coordinate 28, S is on the coordinate 29, T is on the coordinate 42.

Total numbers lie on line QT is

[tex]42-24=18[/tex]

The numbers lie on line ST is

[tex]42-29=13[/tex]

The probability that a point chosen at random on QT is on ST is

[tex]P=\frac{\text{The numbers lie on line ST}}{\text{Total numbers lie on line QT}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]P=\frac{13}{18}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]P=72.222\approx 72.2\%[/tex]

The probability that a point chosen at random on QT is on ST is 72.2%. Therefore option 4 is correct.

A window has the shape of a rectangle with a semi circle at the top. Find the approximate area of the window using the dimensions shown.

2ft by 4ft

Answers

First, let's find the area of the semi-circle.
Area of a circle = π*r²
Looking at the rectangle, the diameter for the circle is 2 ft. Since we need the radius though, divide the diameter by 2 to get the radius.
r = 1
A = π * 1²
A = π * 1
A = π

But since it's a semicircle, you need to divide that area by 2.
3.14/2 = 1.57

The area of the semi-circle is 1.57.

Area of a rectangle = lw
l = 2
w = 4
A = 2 * 4
A = 8

The area of the rectangle is 8.

Now add those together to get the area of the entire figure.

1.57 + 8 = 9.57

The figure is about 9.57 square feet.

The approximate area of the window is 9.57 ft²

The figure is a composite shape. Therefore, the area can be described as follows:

Area of the composite shape:area = area of semi circle + rectangle

area of a rectangle = lw = 4 × 2 = 8 ft²

area of the semi circle = 1 / 2 πr² = 1 / 2 × π × 1² = 1.57 ft²

Therefore,

area of the window = 8 + 1.57 = 9.57 ft²

In order to solve this problem, use inverse operations.  First subtract 9 from 49 to get 40, then divide 40 by 2 to get 20.  So the original number it all started with was 20.  You can check your work by following the instructions again.  So 20*2=40, and 40+9=49.

Robert buys 3 pounds of bananas at $0.50 per pound and 3 pounds of apples at $1.00 per pound. Which of the following expressions represents the total cost of the fruit he bought (in dollars

Answers

Well I mean we know he spent a total of $4.50, but since we don't have any of the answer choices this is almost impossible. 

Answer:

The answer is $3(0.50+1.00)

Step-by-step explanation:

Robert bought 3 pounds of bananas at $0.50 per pound which can be expressed as:

[tex]3*0.50[/tex]

And 3 pounds of apples at $1.00 per pound which can be expressed as:

[tex]3*1.00[/tex]

As Robert bought the apples and bananas, you can add both expressions:

[tex]3*0.50 + 3*1.00[/tex]

This expression can be factorized as:

[tex]3(0.50+1.00)[/tex]

or

[tex]3(1.50)[/tex]

Both expressions will give you the same result, which is $4.50.
