The second of the three numbers is 4 times the first the third is 2 more than the second. If the second number is decreased by twice the third the result is 28 what are the three numbers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the three numbers = -8, -32, -30

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number = a

let the second number = b

let the third number = c

From the first statement:  b = 4a

From the second statement: c = b + 2

From the third statement: b - 2c = 28

From the above equations, we can solve (1) and (2) together.

c = b + 2

b = c - 2

Also, b - 2c = 28

(c - 2) - 2c = 28

c - 2 - 2c = 28

-c = 30

c = -30

b = -30 - 2

  = -32

b = 4a

a = b/4

a = -32/4

a = -8

Therefore, the three numbers = -8, -32, -30

Tell whether the triangle with the given side lengths is a right triangle. Y/N question

Answers

Yes because,
16^2 + 63^2 = 65^2
By this we can obviously say that,
The sum of the squares of the two sides = the square of hypotenuse
Which makes it a right angle triangle.

Answer:

yes , it is a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

according to the pythagoras theorem to be the right angled triangle the sum of square of two smaller sides of triangle must be equal to the square of it's hypotenuse.

Here , 65 is largest side so it is hypotenuse and other two sides are the legs of the triangle.

pythagoras theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

16^2 + 63^2 = 65^2

256 + 3969 = 4225

4225 = 4225

since both sides are equal it can be concluded that the given side lengths d forms a right triangle.

Answers

Answer:

no but i can create a code from this:

Step-by-step explanation:

java:

int steps = 4;

for (int i = 0; i < steps; i++) { }

this part is psuedocode:

print(i) blocks

there will be 36 squared.

each new step adds one more than the last step added.

f(1) = 1

f(2) = 3 = 1+2

f(3) = 6 = 1+2+3

f(4) = 10 = 1+2+3+4

the pattern is now clear hopefully

f(8) = 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 = 1+8 + 2+7 + 3+6 + 4+5 = 9+9+9+9 = 9*4 = 36

In the later afternoon on a sunny day, Shanice goes outside with a tape measure. She first measures her shadow which is 7 feet 6 inches long. She then measures the shadow of the oak tree in the back yard which is a whopping 74 feet 3 inches. Not content to stop there, she also measures the shadow of her house (taking the longest measurement possible) and finds that it is 28 feet 6 inches. Using this information, find out how much taller the tree is than the house if Shanice's actual height is 5 feet 10 inches.

Answers

Answer:

29 feets 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to obtain the actual height of oak tree :

Converting measurement to inches :.

1 Feet = 12 inches

Shanice height, SA = 5ft 10 in = (12*5 + 10) = 70 in

Shanice shadow, SS = 7ft 6in = (12*7 + 6) = 90 in

Tree shadow, TS = 74ft 3 in =(12*74 + 3) = 891 in

Let actual tree height = TH

Using the relation :

SA / SS = TH / TS

70 / 90 = TH / 891

Cross multiply :

90 * TH = 891 * 70

TH = (891 * 70) / 90

TH = 693 inches

Height of house = 28ft 6 in = (28*12 + 6) = 342 in

Height difference :

(693 - 342) in = 351 inches

351 in / 12 = 29 feets 3 inches

A triangular prism whose total surface area = 64 cm2, and its lateral area = 40 cm2, find the area of ​​its base?

Answers

Answer:

Area of ​​its base = 12cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of ​​its base = 1/2 of its surface area - 1/2 of its lateral area

Its surface area = 64, then 1/2 X 64 = 32cm²

Its lateral area = 40, then 1/2 X 40 = 20cm²

So, Area of ​​its base = 32 - 20 = 12cm²
