A right triangle with a hypotenuse of square root of 61 has an area of 15 square inches. Find the lengths of the other two sides.



Answers

Answer 1

The lengths of the other two sides are 6 inches and 5 inches

Let b represent the base of the right triangle, h represent the height of the right triangle and x represent the hypotenuse.

Since the area of the triangle is 15 in², hence:

Area(A) = (1/2) * base * height

15 = (1/2)bh

bh = 30  

b = 30/h         (1)

Applying Pythagoras theorem also:

x² = b² + h²

(√61)² = b² + h²

61 = (30/h)² + h²

61 = 900/h² + h²

61h² = 900 + h⁴

h⁴ - 61h² + 900 = 0

h = -6, -5, 5, 6

Since the length cant be negative, hence h = 5 or h = 6

When h = 5; b = 30/5 = 6

When h = 6; b = 30/6 = 5

Therefore the lengths of the other two sides are 6 inches and 5 inches

A basketball player made 12 out of 15 free throws she attempted. She wants to know how many consecutive free throws she would have to make to raise the percent of successful free throws to 85%. Write an equation to represent this situation. Solve the equation. How many consecutive free throws would she have to make to raise her percent to 85%? Answer:

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of ADDITIONAL throws

(12 + x) / (15 + x) = 0.85

12 + x = 0.85(15 + x)

12 + x = 12.75 + 0.85x

0.15x = 0.75

x = 5 more successful consecutive throws. or 17 out of 20

solve the literal equation a + 4b = 5b - 3a for a

Answers

Simplifying
a + 4b = 5b + -3a

Reorder the terms:
a + 4b = -3a + 5b

Solving
a + 4b = -3a + 5b

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3a' to each side of the equation.
a + 3a + 4b = -3a + 3a + 5b

Combine like terms: a + 3a = 4a
4a + 4b = -3a + 3a + 5b

Combine like terms: -3a + 3a = 0
4a + 4b = 0 + 5b
4a + 4b = 5b

Add '-4b' to each side of the equation.
4a + 4b + -4b = 5b + -4b

Combine like terms: 4b + -4b = 0
4a + 0 = 5b + -4b
4a = 5b + -4b

Combine like terms: 5b + -4b = 1b
4a = 1b

Divide each side by '4'.
a = 0.25b

Simplifying
a = 0.25b

AT WHAT X-VALUE DOES A
RELATIVE MINIMUM
OCCUR?

Answers

The graph was too small for me to see so I used the first derivative test to find it:

The answer is 4.24

(Super long explanation, my work is below):

For this test, first you find the derivative of the function, then you set that value to 0 and find the x values. This gives you the critical points, which you can use to test the intervals on the graph. Since this function has an open interval we can use - infinity and infinity as the endpoints of out test. When the value of derivative changes from a negative interval to a positive interval, that is a relative min.

Answer:

  x ≈ 4.239

Step-by-step explanation:

A relative minimum is found at the bottom of any U-shape on the graph. If you expand the graph shown until it has a suitable scale, it can show you the relative minimum occurs at x ≈ 4.239.

Additional comment

The relative maximum occurs at the top of any ∩-shape. The graphing calculator can show you that occurs at x ≈ -1.573.

Solve −3x2 + 30x − 90 = 0

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

so, it is a quadratic equation :

-3x² + 30x - 90 = 0

the first thing we can do is divide by 3

-x² + 10x - 30 = 0

remember, the formula to solve and find the 2 solutions is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case here

a = -1

b = 10

c = -30

x = (-10 ± sqrt(100 - 4×-1×-30))/-2 =

= (-10 ± sqrt(100 - 120))/-2 = (-10 ± sqrt(-20))/-2 =

= (-10 ± sqrt(4×5)i)/-2 = (-10 ± 2×sqrt(5)i)/-2 =

= 5 ± -sqrt(5)i

x1 = 5 - sqrt(5)i

x2 = 5 + sqrt(5)i

remember, i = sqrt(-1), a complex number.

D) (4.5, 3.5)

answers B and C have a small horizontal line above the x coordinate decimal place. i have no idea what that means.​

Answers

Answer:

A) (3.5, 0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The small horizontal line represents that that digit is repeated to the right of the decimal point ad infinitum. Example would be the decimal equivalent of 1/9 = 0.11111111111... or 0.1 overbar

so 3.6 overbar  would be 3.6666666... or 3⅔

The axis of symmetry of a parabola is the line x = 6. What is the x-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola?

Answers

Answer:

x-coordinate of the vertex: h = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is an imaginary line that divides the graph of a parabola into two congruent parts.  The vertex of a parabola, (h, k) is the point where the graph intersects the axis of symmetry.

In the standard form of quadratic equation, y = ax² + bx + c:

[tex]\large \sf{axis\:of\:symmetry:\:x\:=\:\frac{-b}{2a}}[/tex]

In the vertex form of quadratic function, y = a(x - h)²+ k:

[tex]\large \sf{axis\:of\:symmetry:\:h\:=\:\frac{-b}{2a}}[/tex]

Hence, the axis of symmetry is the point where x = h.  

Given these definitions, we can infer that the x-coordinate of the axis of symmetry is the same as the x-coordinate of the vertex, where h = 6.
