Answer:

9 units and 12 units to nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one leg be x units long then the other = x+3 units.

By Pythagoras:

x^2 + (x+3)^2 = 15^2 = 225

2x^2 + 6x + 9 = 225

2x^2 + 6x - 216 =0

x^2 + 3x - 108 = 0

(x - 9)(x + 12) = 0

x = 9

So the other 2 legs are 9 and 12.

Three friends, Ana, Jack and Nick come together to purchase a special from a pizza place. It is a half pepperoni, half mushrooms

maw [93]

Answer:

Paula would choose the side with all of the mushrooms and half of the pepperoni. She wont choose any sausage because she doesn't like it, but luckily David likes sausage twice as much as mushroom so he's fine with getting all of the sausage and half of the pepperoni. They both equally like pepperoni so it makes sense for them to share.

Solve x/ x-2 + x+2/ x >2

lilavasa [31]

$\frac{x}{x - 2} + \frac{x + 2}{x} \ \textgreater \ 2$
$\frac{x(x)}{x(x - 2)} + \frac{(x - 2)(x + 2)}{x(x - 2)} \ \textgreater \ 2$
$\frac{x^{2}}{x(x - 2)} + \frac{x^{2} - 4}{x(x - 2)} \ \textgreater \ 2$
$\frac{x^{2} + x^{2} - 4}{x(x - 2)} \ \textgreater \ 2$
$\frac{2x^{2} - 4}{x(x - 2)} \ \textgreater \ 2$
$2x(x - 2) \ \textgreater \ 2x^{2} - 4$
$2x^{2} - 4x \ \textgreater \ 2x^{2} - 4$
$-4x \ \textgreater \ 4$
$x \ \textgreater \ -1$
