the shorter leg of a right triangle is 8 inches shorter ybsn the longer leg. the hypotenuse is 8 inches longer thsn the longer leg​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Short leg = 24inches

Long leg = 32inches

Hypotenuse = 40inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

shorter leg is 8inches shorter than the longer leghypotenuse is 8inches longer than the longer leglonger leg = x inches

Pythagorean Theorem:

a²+b²=c² → (x-8)²+ x² = (x+8)²

Solving for both sides:

x² - 16x+ 64 + x² = x²+ 16x + 64

More Painful Solving:

x² - 32x = 0

x(x-32) = 0

 

x=0 or 32

Can't use the 0 so we trash it!

x=32

add 8 to get the hypotenuse and subtract 8 to get the short leg

Answers

Answer:

Yes, Chris will score.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the ball in the goal, the ball must be below 8ft (the height of the goal) when the ball passes the 25ft mark; ie, Chris will score if f(x)<8 when x=25:

f(x)=-0.05(x-16)²+11

f(25)=-0.05(25-16)²+11

=-0.05(9²)+11

=-0.05(81)+11

=11-4.05

=6.95

Since 6.95<8, we can see that Chris will score if Deshawn doesn't block the ball.

Answers

Answer:

68 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

the shape is a trapezoid

A trapezoid is a convex quadrilateral. A trapezoid has at least on pair of parallel sides. the parallel sides are called bases while the non parallel sides are called legs

Characteristics of a trapezoid

It has 4 vertices and edges

If both pairs of its opposite sides of a trapezoid are parallel, it becomes a parallelogram

Area of a trapezoid =   x (sum of the lengths of the parallel sides) x height

the dimension of the height is not given. We have to determine the value of the height using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

10² = 6² + height²

100 = 36 + height²

height = 64

the square root of 64 is 8

the height is 8

1/2 x (8 + 9) x 8 = 68in^2

Justin is marking a border for a garden. He walks 200 feet to the east, then turns and

walks 120 feet due south, before finally walking in a straight line back to his original

starting point. To the nearest foot, how far does Justin walk in all?

Answer

feet

Answers

Answer:

d = 233.23 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Justin walks 200 feet to the east, then turns and  walks 120 feet due south.

We need to find the total distance walked by Justin. Let the distance be d.

We can use the Pythagoras theorem to find it such that,

[tex]d=\sqrt{d_1^2+d_2^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{200^2+120^2} \\\\d=233.24\ feet[/tex]

So, he walk 233.23 feet in all.

Krysta knit a total of 16 centimeters of scarf over 8 nights. How many nights will Krysta have
to spend knitting in order to knit a total of 46 centimeters of scarf? Assume the relationship is
directly proportional.
nights

Answers

Answer:

23 nights

Step-by-step explanation:

What does "Proportional" Mean? Proportional means that the ratio is the same throughout.

Step One: First, to set this up, we will put the 16 centimeters for the numerator and then the 8 nights on the bottom. The bottom is the independent variable because we can't physically change the number of nights. 16/8.

Step Two: Now, we have to scale this up to 46. Because the 46 is the centimeters, we have to do 46/16 to see how much we need to scale it by: 46/16= 2.875.

Step Three: Lastly, we can multiply 8 by 2.875 to see how many nights it took: 8 times 2.875 is 23 nights.

measure of ZQRS?
MZQRS = [?]

Answers

Answer:

m<QRS = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 140 = 40

The measure of angle m∠QRS which is supplementary to m∠ABC is determined as 40⁰.

What is a supplementary angle?

A supplementary angle is a pair of angles that add up to 180 degrees.

That is to say, if we have two angles and their measures sum up to 180 degrees, then they are supplementary angles. Each angle in a supplementary pair is called the "supplement" of the other angle.

The measure of angle QRS is calculated by applying the following formula as follows;

m∠QRS + m∠ABC = 180 (supplementary angles add up to 180)

m∠QRS + 140 = 180

m∠QRS = 180 - 140

m∠QRS = 40⁰

Thus, the measure of angle m∠QRS which is supplementary to m∠ABC is determined as 40⁰.

Adult tickets to a basketball game cost $5. Student tickets cost $1. A total of $3,142 was collected on the sale of 1,330 tickets. How many of each type of ticket were sold?


The basketball game sold
______adult tickets and
_______student tickets.

Answers

Answer:

453 adult tickets and 877 student tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that adult tickets to a basketball game cost $ 5 and student tickets cost $ 1, and a total of $ 3,142 was collected on the sale of 1,330 tickets, to determine how many of each type of ticket were sold the following calculations must be performed:

5 - 1 = 4

1330 x 1 = 1330

3142 - 1330 = 1812

1812/4 = 453

1330 - 453 = 877

877 x 1 + 453 x 5 = X

877 + 2265 = X

3142 = X

Therefore, 453 adult tickets and 877 student tickets were sold.
