The 20-inch rod forms a right triangle with the 15 inches tall box

The value of x in the diagram is 13.2 inches

<h3>How to determine the value of x</h3>

To calculate the value of x, we make use of the following Pythagoras theorem

20^2 = 15^2 + x^2

Evaluate the exponents in the above equation

400 = 225 + x^2

Subtract 225 from both sides of the equation

175 = x^2

Take the square root of both sides

x = 13.2

Hence, the value of x in the diagram is 13.2 inches

Jlenok [28]

1. 12*100 - 12*5

You would use the distributive property to get this equation (it is equivalent to the original one)

Please solve the following Factor. 9w2-49
romanna [79]

Answer:

(3w - 7)(3w + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

Thus

9w² - 49

= (3w)² - 7²

= (3w - 7)(3w + 7)
