One of the legs of a right triangle measures 16 cm and the other leg measures 8 cm. Find the measure of the hypotenuse. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

17.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem, c²= a² + b². We can rewrite it as c = √(a² + b²),  a=16 and b=8. Plug it in as c = √(16² + 8²) then simplify.

c = √(16² + 8²)

c = √(256 + 64)

c = √320

c≈17.9 (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Answer:

[tex]x=7.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In any right triangle, the sine of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.

The angle marked 33 degrees has its opposite side labelled with [tex]x[/tex] and the hypotenuse of the triangle labelled with 12.

Thus, we can set up the following equation to solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]\tan 33^{\circ}=\frac{x}{12},\\x=12\tan 33^{\circ}=7.79289111837\approx \boxed{7.8}[/tex]

Answer:

  the correct answer is marked

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle with center (h, k) and radius r has equation ...

  (x -h)² +(y-k)² = r²

For the given center, that is ...

  (x -1)² +(y +1)² = r²

The value of r² can be found by using the given point for x and y, and seeing what value of r² makes the equation true.

  (5 -1)² +(7 +1)² = 4² +8² = 16 +64 = 80

So, r² = 80 makes the equation true, and that equation is ...

  (x -1)² +(y +1)² = 80

Keith is looking at a cliff. He determines that the angle of elevation to the top is 70° from where he is at. 70m away from Keith, Alan estimates the angle between the base of the cliff, himself, and Keith to be 29° while Keith estimates the angle between the base of the cliff, himself, and Alan to be 48°. What is the height, h, of the cliff to the nearest tenth of a metre?
1) 78.8m
2) 83.9m
3) 89.0m

Answers

Answer:

  4) 95.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at the cliff base between Alan and Keith is ...

  B = 180° -29° -48° = 103°

The law of sines will tell you the distance KB from Keith to the cliff base is

  KB/sin(A) = KA/sin(B)

  KB = KA×sin(A)/sin(B) = (70 m)sin(29°)/sin(103°) ≈ 34.82935 m

The height of the cliff is found from the tangent relation ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(70°) = height/(34.83 m)

  height = (34.83 m)tan(70°) = 95.693 m

The height of the cliff is about 95.7 m.

Additional comment

These problems can usually be resolved into two 2-D problems. Here, we can work out the distance we need from Keith to the cliff by considering only the ground plan of the site. Then we can work out the height of the cliff only considering the vertical plane containing Keith and the base of the cliff.

using data from 2010 and projected to 2020, the population of the United Kingdom (y, in millions) can be approximated by the equation 10.0y-4.55x=581. where x is the number of years after 2000 what is projected population in 2026?

Answers

Answer:

The projected population in 2026 is of 699.3 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population:

The population, in x years after 2000, is given by the follwing equation:

[tex]y - 4.55x = 581[/tex]

That is:

[tex]y(x) = 4.55x + 581[/tex]

What is projected population in 2026?

2026 - 2000 = 26, so this is y(26).

[tex]y(26) = 4.55(26) + 581 = 699.3[/tex]

The projected population in 2026 is of 699.3 million.

Two functions are shown in the table below f(x) equals -X squared plus 4X +12 And G(x)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = -2; x = 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = -x^2 + 4x + 12[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = x +2[/tex]

Required

For what value of x is: [tex]f(x) = g(x)[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = g(x)[/tex] implies that

[tex]-x^2 + 4x + 12 = x + 2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]-x^2 + 4x -x + 12 -2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]-x^2 + 3x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]-x^2 + 5x-2x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]-x(x - 5)-2(x - 5) = 0[/tex]

Factor out x - 5

[tex](-x - 2)(x - 5) = 0[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]-x - 2 = 0; x - 5 = 0[/tex]

So:

[tex]x = -2; x = 5[/tex]

Jake wants to surprise his parents with a small anniversary party at their favorite restaurant.

It will cost $35.75 per person for dinner, including tip and tax.

His budget for the party is $600.

What is the maximum number of people Jake can have at the party without exceeding his budget?

Answers

Answer:

16 people

Step-by-step explanation:

35.75 times 16 is 572, times 17 is 607.75, he only has 600 and he cant have a fraction of a person, so he can have 16 people

35.75x=600
x/35.75=600/35.75
x=16.78

He can invite 16 people without exceeding his budget.

If it takes 1074 digits to number the pages of a book starting with page 1. how many pages are in the book? The book has a total of pages. ​

Answers

Answer:

394 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

1- digit numbers:

1 to 9, number of digits = 9

2- digit numbers:

10 to 99, number of digits = 2(99 - 9) = 180

3- digit numbers:

100 to 999, number of digits = 3(999 - 99) = 2700

This is more than we have, but we know the number of pages is 3-digit.

Let it be x, then we have:

9 + 180 + 3(x - 99) = 10743(x - 99) = 1074 - 1893(x - 99) = 885x - 99 = 885/3x - 99 = 295x = 295 + 99x = 394

you toss six coins at the same time. how many possible outcomes are there?

64

36

12

6​

Answers

Answer:

64 outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of coins be n.Let the number of outcomes per coin be X.

Given the following data;

Number of coins = 6

Number of outcomes for a single coin = 2

A single coin comprises of a head (H) and a tail (T), thus, the number of outcomes for a single coin is two (2).

To find how many possible outcomes we would have from tossing six coins at the same time, we would use the following formula;

[tex] Number \; of \; outcomes = X^{n} [/tex]

Substituting the values, we have;

Number of outcomes = 2⁶

2⁶ = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

2⁶ = 64

Number of outcomes = 64

Therefore, the number of outcomes for a single coin tossed at the same time is equal to sixty four (64). It would have a total of 32 heads (H) and a total of 32 tails (T).

The most commonly seen Pythagorean triples are (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17) and their multiples.

In problem 4, once you see that the differences of the coordinates are 3 and 4, you can consult your memory of the (3, 4, 5) Pythagorean triple to recognize the hypotenuse length of a triangle with sides 3 and 4 is 5.

Similarly, in problem 5, you recognize the coordinate differences as 5 and 12, so you know from the (5, 12, 13) Pythagorean triple that the distance will be 13.
