How old am I if 500 reduced by 3 times my age is 278?

Let your age = X

Now you have 500 - 3x = 278

Subtract 500 from each side:

-3x = -222

Divide both sides by -3:

x = -222 / -3

x = 74

You are 74 years old.

Calculate the length of x.
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse. You can do this by squaring 12 and 11 (separately) and then adding those together. You'll get 265. However, since this is c squared and not c, you have to find the square root for the correct answer. The square root of 265 is approximately 16.28. Hope this helps!
