The Pythagorean theorem states that:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Let a represent the length of one leg.

Because the hypotenuse is 14 cm longer than a leg, we can say that the hypotenuse's length is 14 + a.

Plug these into the Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\a^2+a^2=(14+a)^2\\2a^2=14^2+2(14)a+a^2\\2a^2=196+28a+a^2\\a^2=196+28a\\a^2-196-28a=0\\a^2-28a-196=0[/tex]

Factor using the quadratic formula:

[tex]a=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{-(-28)\pm \sqrt{(-28)^2-4(1)(-196)}}{2(1)}\\\\a=14\pm14\sqrt{2}\\\\a=14+14\sqrt{2}[/tex]

We know that it's plus because subtracting results in a negative value, and length cannot be negative.

This is the length of each side.

Because the hypotenuse is 14 cm longer, we can say that the hypotenuse is [tex]28+14\sqrt{2}[/tex].

Leg length = [tex]14+14\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Hypotenuse length = [tex]28+14\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is HOW to solve this problem:

b = pounds of blue candy      then   r =  11-b = pounds of red candy

.79b = cost of blue candy             1.29 (11-b) = cost of red candy

   these two costs sum to   11.19  

.79b    + 1.29 ( 11-b)  = 11.19        Now you can solve for 'b'  the 'r' = 11-b

Answer:

Red candy =5

Blue candy = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the pounds of red candy be x and blue candy y. Then y=11-x

Also 1.29x + 0.79y=11.19

1.29x+0.79(11-x)=11.19

0.5x=11.19–8.69

0.5x=2.5

X=5

Red candy =5

Blue candy = 6

An angle is produced at the point where two or more lines meet. Thus the value of LP required in the question is approximately 14.

Two lines are said to be perpendicular when a measure of the angle between them is a right angle. While parallel lines are lines that do not meet even when extended to infinity.

From the question, let the length of LP be represented by x.

Thus, from the given question, it can be deduced that;

LM ≅ PN = 20

KP = KN - PN

    = 30 - 20

KP = 10

LP = x

Also,

<MLP is a right angle, so that;

< KLP = < KLM - <PLM

         = 126 - 90

<KLP = [tex]36^{o}[/tex]

So that applying the Pythagoras theorem to triangle KLP, we have;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Tan 36 = [tex]\frac{10}{x}[/tex]

x = [tex]\frac{10}{Tan 36}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{10}{0.7265}[/tex]

x = 13.765

Therefore the side LP ≅ 14.

f(x)=-3x+4

f(a)= -3a +4

So,

2f(a)= f(a) + f(a)

=(-3a +4) +(-3a + 4)

=-3a + 4 -3a - 4

=-6a

f(2a)=2(-3a + 4)

=-6a +8

f(a+2)=(-3a + 4) + 2

f(a) + f(2)= -3a +1+5

because, f(2)= -3(2)+1

(i) The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = - 5.

(ii) The coordinates of the vertex of the parabola are (h, k) = (4, - 18). The x-value of the vertex is 4.

(iii) According to the vertex form of the quadratic equation, the parabola opens down due to negative lead coefficient and has a vertex at (2, 4), which is a maximum.  

In this question we must find and infer characteristics from three cases of quadratic equations. (i) In this case we must find a formula of a axis of symmetry based on information about the vertex of the parabola. Such axis passes through the vertex. Hence, the equation of the axis of symmetry is x = - 5.

(ii) We need to transform the quadratic equation into its vertex form to determine the coordinates of the vertex by algebraic handling:

y = x² - 8 · x - 2

y + 18 = x² - 8 · x + 16

y + 18 = (x - 4)²

In a nutshell, the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola are (h, k) = (4, - 18). The x-value of the vertex is 4.

(iii) Now here we must apply a procedure similar to what was in used in part (ii):

y = - 2 · (x² - 4 · x + 2)

y - 4 = - 2 · (x² - 4 · x + 2) - 4

y - 4 = - 2 · (x² - 4 · x + 4)

y - 4 = - 2 · (x - 2)²

According to the vertex form of the quadratic equation, the parabola opens down due to negative lead coefficient and has a vertex at (2, 4), which is a maximum.

If the formula, =MID("ABCDEFGHI",3,4) is used, the result yielded would be CDEF.

When using the =MID function on a spreadsheet, the number after the text in the formula would show the position of the text from the left that the function would begin to count from.

The text in the third position from the left as shown in ABCDEFGHI is C so we need to start counting from letter C.

The second number in the function would then show the number of texts that needs to be counted and selected from the row of letters. That number is 4.

So from the letter C, you'll count 4 letters including the letter C itself.

The result you get would therefore be C, D, E, F which are the four letters from C.
