(9,40,41) is a Pythagorean Triple, farther down the list than teachers usually venture.
Answer: D. 41 cm
There's a subset of Pythagorean Triples where the long leg is one less than the hypotenuse,
a^2+b^2 = (b+1)^2
a^2 + b^2 = b^2 + 2b +1
a^2=2b+1
So we get one for every odd number, since the square of an odd number is odd and the square of an even number is even.
b = (a^2 - 1)/2
a=3, b=(3^2-1)/2=4, c=b+1=5
a=5, b=(5^2-1)/2 =12, c = 13
a=7, b=24, c=25
a=9, b=40, c=41
a=11, b=60, c=61
a=13, b=84, c=85
It's good to be able to recognize Pythagorean Triples when we see them.
Otherwise we'd have to work the calculator:
√(9² + 40²) = √1681 = 41
Answer:
Total volume of all the bins = xS + yL
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: x cubic inches represent the volume of the smaller bin and y cubic inches represents the volume of the larger bin. The store has S smaller bins and L larger bins.
To find: an expression that represents the total volume of all the bins
Solution:
The volume of the smaller bin = x cubic inches
The volume of the larger bin = y cubic inches
Also, the store has S smaller bins and L larger bins
So,
Total volume of all the bins = xS + yL
The area of the park is 1465m squared, because you would find the area of the square first which is 100m squared and then you would add that to the area of the trapezoid which is 1365m squared and after you add them, you would get 1465m squared. I’m still not sure if this is the exact answer but please check it over to see if I did it correct :)
The answer is 52
In the number 51.8 the 8 is 5 or higher so it rounds up to 52 not down to 51
