One Of The Legs Of A Right Triangle Measures 16 Cm And Its Hypotenuse Measures 20cm. Find The Measure

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem. 16^2+b^2=20^2. Multiply the exponents: 256+b^2=400. subtract 256 from 400=144. Therefore 144=b^2. the square root of 144 is 12.

Help me on Domain and Range

Answers

Answer:

Domain: 0 ≤ x < 9

Range: 0 < y ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the set of all values used for x-coordinates of all points on the curve.

The range is the set of all values used for y-coordinates of all points on the curve.

Look at the graph. The leftmost point is (0, 3). That point is included in the graph since there is no open circle there.

So far we know this:

Domain goes from 0 to ...

Range goes from 3 to ...

Now we look at the rightmost point. It is (9, 0), but there is an open circle on it, so that point itself is not included in the domain or range.

Now we know this:

Domain goes from 0 to just less than 9.

Range goes from 3 to to just more than 0.

Domain: 0 ≤ x < 9

Range: 0 < y ≤ 3

Keisha, Felipe, and Manuel sent a total of 100 text messages during the weekend. Keisha sent 8 more messages than Felipe. Manuel sent 2 times as many
messages as Felipe. How many messages did they each send?

Answers

Answer:

Felipe = 23 messages

Keisha = 31 messages

Manuel = 46 messages

Step-by-step explanation:

Keisha = K

Felipe = F

Manuel = M

=> There are a total of 100 messages.

=> K sent 8 +F => K = 8 + F

=> M sent 2 * F => M = 2F

=> F = F

=> 8 + F + 2F + F = 100

=> 8 + 4F = 100

=> 8 - 8 +4F = 100 -8

=> 4F = 92

=> 4F/4 = 92/4

=> F = 23

So, Felipe = 23 messages.

      Keisha = 8 + F = 8 + 23 = 31 messages.

      Manuel = 2F = 2* 23 = 46 messages.

46 + 31 + 23 = 77 + 23 = 100 messages.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

If Sue ran with an average speed of 7 miles an hour for 1 hour, she would have run 7 miles. So, if she ran at this speed for 3 hours, she would have run 3 times the distance she would if she ran for one hour!

Answers

Answer:

Yes they are of the same size since they have the same number and standard unit of measurement (i.e 24 inches).

Each person measures the circumference of the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Priya, Han, and Mai each measured one of the circular objects from earlier.

Priya says that the bike wheel is 24 inches.

Han says that the yo-yo trick is 24 inches.

Mai says that the glow necklace is 24 inches.

Do you think that all these circles are the same size?

Yes they are of the same size since they have the same number and standard unit of measurement (i.e 24 inches).

What part of the circle did each person measure?

Each person measures the circumference of the circle.

The circumference also known as the perimeter of the circle is denoted by :

C = 2π r

The circumference of a circle is the distance round the edges of the circle.

Given that C = 24

24 = 2π r

r = 24/(2π)

r = 3.8 inches

This confirms the claim that all the circle are of the same size since they possess the same radius.

Ms. Mitchell brings in 700 sour worms to distribute to the students at ... /1
her school. She gives 2/7 of the worms to the Kindergartners. Of the
remaining worms, she gives 7/25 to the 1st graders. Of the remaining
worms, she gives 4/9 to the 2nd graders. Of the remaining worms, she
gives 37/50 to the 3rd graders. Ms. Mitchell then distributes the
remaining worms evenly between the 4th graders. If there are 13 4th
graders, how many worms does each 4th grader get?

Answers

Answer:  4

================================================

Explanation:

We'll step through the grade levels in increasing order

The teacher starts with 700 sour worms total. Then 2/7 of that is given to the Kindergartners

2/7 of 700 = (2/7)*700 = 200

So Ms. Mitchell handed out 200 worms to the Kindergartners.

This means she has 700-200 = 500 left over.

-----------------

Now onto the 1st graders.

The teacher hands out 7/25 of the remaining total (500) to the first graders

7/25 of 500 = (7/25)*500 = 140

She hands out 140 worms to the first graders and has 500-140 = 360 worms left.

-------------------

Now the 2nd graders

"Of the remaining worms, she gives 4/9 to the 2nd graders" tells us that

4/9 of 360 = (4/9)*360 = 160 worms are given to the second graders

This leaves 360-160 = 200 worms left

-------------------

Now the 3rd graders

37/50 of 200 = (37/50)*200 = 148

The teacher hands out 148 worms to the 3rd graders

There are 200 - 148 = 52 worms left.

--------------------

Finally, we're at the 4th graders

Each 4th grader gets the same number of worms (aka the amount is distributed equally). Since there are 52 worms left, and 13 fourth graders, this means each fourth grader gets 52/13 = 4 worms. It's a slightly interesting coincidence that the number '4' matches up with the grade level. It's possible your teacher adjusted the numbers to make this an intentional goal.

--------------------

To recap everything, we found these worm counts for each grade level

Kindergarten = 200 wormsFirst graders = 140 wormsSecond graders = 160 wormsThird Graders = 148 wormsFourth graders = 52 worms

Note how those values add back up to 700, ie 200+140+160+148+52 = 700. This helps confirm the answer.

Then once we see that 52 worms are left, each fourth grader gets 52/13 = 4 worms a piece.

So this is why the final answer is 4.

The circumference of a circle is 6π m. What is the area, in square meters? Express your answer in terms of
π
π.

Answers

Answer:

9π meters

Step-by-step explanation:

SInce 6π is the circumference of the circle, 6π would be the diameter.

We need to then convert 6π into the radius which we can do by dividing 6π by 2 to get 3π.

The formula for the area of a circle is πr^2. Plug in the previous result for the radius to get the following:

π3^2

Answer:

Area=9π m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given that the circumference of a circle is 6π meters, and we want to find the area of the circle

The formula to find the circumference of a circle is 2πr, where r is the radius

The formula to find the area of a circle is πr², where r is the radius

So we need to find the radius

As 6π and 2πr both equal the circumference of the circle, 6π is equal to 2πr. This is possible by a property known as  transitivity (if a=b and b=c, then a=c) .

As an equation, the result is:

6π=2πr

Divide both sides by 2π

3=r

So the radius is 3 meters

Now, substitute 3 as the radius in πr² to find the area

A=πr²

A=π(3)²

Raise 3 to the second power, which is the same as multiplying it by itself

A=π*9

A=9π m²

Hope this helps!
