An isosceles right triangle has legs of equal length if the hypotenuse is 10 cm long find the length of each leg

Answers

Answer 1

Since this is a right triangle, we know we have to use the Pythagorean Theorem: A² + B² = C² , where A and B = the legs of the triangle (which are shorter than the hypotenuse) and C = the hypotenuse.

In this isosceles triangle, A = B (because the legs are the same size) and C is 10cm longer than A and B.

Thus we get the following,

A = x

B = x

C = x + 10

We simply plug in these variables into the equation and solve for x:

x² + x² = (x+10)²

2x² = x² + 20x + 100

x² - 20x - 100 = 0

We solve for x by completing the square:

(x² - 20x + 100) - 100 = 100

(x-10)² -100 = 100

(x-10)² = 200

x - 10 = √(200)

x - 10 = 10 √2

x = 10 + 10√2 = 24

Finally,

A ≈ 24 (or 10 + 10√2)

B ≈ 24 (or 10 + 10√2)

C ≈ 24 + 10 ≈ 34 (or 10 + 10√2 + 10 = 20 + 10√2)

Rewrite as equivalent rational expressions with denominator (c- 9) (c+9)(c + 6):

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

as (c + 9)(c - 9) = c² - 81

and (c - 9)(c + 6) = c² - 3c - 54

    8(c + 6)        =         8c + 48        

(c² - 81)(c + 6)       (c - 9)(c + 9)(c + 6)

            10c(c + 9)     =     10c² + 90c        

(c² - 3c - 54)(c + 9)       (c - 9)(c + 9)(c + 6)

The equivalent rational expressions with denominator (c- 9) (c+9)(c + 6) are;

1.  8 / (c² - 81) = 8 / (c + 9) (c - 9)

2. 10c / (c² - 3c - 54) = 10c / (c + 6) (c - 9)

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

The expressions are,

1. 8 / (c² - 81)

2. 10c / (c² - 3c - 54)

Now,

Solve the expressions for the denominator (c- 9) (c+9)(c + 6) as;

1. 8 / (c² - 81) = 8 / (c² - 9²)

                   = 8 / (c + 9) (c - 9)

Thus, 8 / (c² - 81) = 8 / (c + 9) (c - 9)

2. 10c / (c² - 3c - 54) = 10c / (c² - (9- 6)c - 54)

                               = 10c / (c² - 9c + 6c - 54)

                               = 10c / [c(c-9) + 6(c - 9)]

                               = 10c / (c + 6) (c - 9)

Thus, 10c / (c² - 3c - 54) = 10c / (c + 6) (c - 9)

Therefore, The equivalent rational expressions with denominator (c- 9) (c+9)(c + 6) are;

1.  8 / (c² - 81) = 8 / (c + 9) (c - 9)

2. 10c / (c² - 3c - 54) = 10c / (c + 6) (c - 9)

Which is the better deal? $39.55 for 7 pairs of jeans OR $22.48 for 4 pairs of jeans

Answers

Answer:

I will say %39.56 for 7 pairs because you'll have 7 pair of jeans so you don't have to buy more if some of your jeans rips or something happens so yeah.

Answer:

$39.55 for 7 pairs of jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM of 7 and 4 is 28, so I decided to use that as an example.

4×7=28

22.48×8=179.84

So if you wanted 28 jeans, you'd be paying $179.84

- - - - -

Now the first deal.

7×4=28

39.55×4=158.2

For 28 jeans, you'd be paying $158.20

For 28 jeans, the first choice offers a better deal than the other.

Mind you, I know the word problem isnt about 28 jeans. But since 28 was the LCM of 4 and 7, I decided to use it as an example

An airline finds that if it prices a cross-country ticket at $300, it will sell 400 tickets per day. It estimates that each $10 price reduction will result in 50 more tickets sold per day. Find the ticket price (and the number of tickets sold) that will maximize the airline's revenue.

Answers

Answer:

price = $190

quantity =  950 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

revenue = price * quantity

n = number of $10 price reductions

price = 300 - 10n

quantity =  400 + 50n

r = (300 - 10n)(400 + 50n)

recognize these as the factors of a quadratic that opens down

the vertex will therefor be the maximum revenue

the roots are:

300 - 10n = 0

300 = 10n

n = 30

400 + 50n = 0

50n = -400

n = -8

vertex is at mid point of the roots

n = (-8 + 30)/2

n = 11

price = 300 - 10n

price = 300 - 10(11)

price = 190

quantity =  400 + 50n

quantity =  400 + 50(11)

quantity =  950

Using relations in a right triangle, it is found that the sine of 23 degrees is given by:

D. 5/13.

What are the relations in a right triangle?

The relations in a right triangle are given as follows:

The sine of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.The cosine of an angle is given by the length of the adjacent side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.The tangent of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the adjacent side to the angle.

Looking at the graph, the side opposite to the angle of 23º is of 5, while the hypotenuse is of 13, hence the sine is given by:

sin(23º) = 5/13.

Which means that option D is correct.
