Answer:13.86km
Step-by-step explanation: see attachment
Let's say that the shorter piece is x and the longer piece is 5x (because it's 5 times as long). x+5x=72 and 6x=72. Dividing both sides by 6, we get that x=12, and 72-12=the length of the other piece (since there are only 2 pieces)=60
.059, you move the decimal point two times to the left and the other way around when you want to convert into a percent
For any right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem states that for any right triangle, the legs when squared and added together will be equal to the hypotenuse squared.
In mathematical notation:

Where the variables a and b are the legs and the variable c is the hypotenuse.
Because we know the two side lengths of the triangle, we can solve for the unknown side.
We know the length of one of the legs and the hypotenuse.
Plug in the values.


So, the square root of 476 is the unknown length.
The slope-intercept form of 2x+y=8 is y=2x-8
