Cooper writes the equation (a+b)2=c2+4(12ab) to begin a proof of the Pythagorean theorem. Use the drop-down menus to explain why this is a true equation.

Find the distance between (7,-6) and (-3,-9)

Titus works at a hotel. part of his job is to keep the complimentary pitcher of water at least half full and always with ice. when he starts his shift, the water level shows 4 gallons, or 128 cups of water. as the shift progresses, he records the level of the water every 10 minutes. after 2 hours, he uses a regression calculator to compute an equation for the decrease in water. his equation is w –0.414t + 129.549, where t is the number of minutes and w is the level of water. according to the equation, after about how many minutes would the water level be less than or equal to 64 cups?

Nthe opening scene of the movie raiders of the lost ark, indiana jones replaces a golden statue with a bag of sand. the platform on which the statue is placed is designed to detect the mass of the statue. if the bag of sand has a different mass than the statue, then a mechanism triggers and destruction ensues. the density of gold is about 20\text{ g/cm}^320 g/cm 3 20, space, g, slash, c, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. the density of sand can be estimated at 2.5\text{ g/cm}^32.5 g/cm 3 2, point, 5, space, g, slash, c, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. the gold statue can be modeled as a cylinder with height 25\text{ cm}25 cm25, space, c, m and radius 8\text{ cm}8 cm8, space, c, m. in terms of \piπpi, what is the mass of sand indiana jones needs to avoid triggering the mechanism?
