Find the missing length to the nearest tenth.
Right Triangle
6 m
C
16 m

17.1 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

6 and 16 are the legs, because they form the right angle. c is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.

Evaluate the exponents.

6^2= 6*6= 36

16^2= 16*16= 256

Add 36 and 256.

Since c is being squared, take the square root of both sides of the equation. The exponent and square root will cancel and leave c by itself

Round to the nearest tenth. The 8 in the hundredeth place tells us to roung the 0 in the tenth place up to a 1.

c= 17.1 m

The missing length, or the hyptenuse is 17.1 meters.

answer: #1 ads up by 8 and i don't know #2

step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

- x + y = - 2 → (1)

2x - 3y = 4 → (2)

multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term

- 2x + 2y = - 4 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term

(2x - 2x) + (- 3y + 2y) = (4 - 4), simplifying gives

- y = 0 ⇒ y = 0

substitute y = 0 in either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of x

substituting in (2) gives

2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 2

solution is (2, 0 ) → a
