First find the length of the longest leg
x^2 = 13^2 - 5^2 ( by the Pythagoras theorem)
x^2 = 144
x = 12
Area of the traingle = 1/2 * base * height
= 1/2 * 5 * 12
= 30 units^2
Answer: a=36; b=18
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You know that the sum of two numbers is 54, then, you have:
a+b=54
2. According to the problem, the larger number is 18 more than the sampler number, this can be expressed as following:
a=b+18
3. Then, you must substitute the second equation into the first equation and solve for b:
b+18+b=54
b=18
4. Then the value of a is:
a+18=55
a=36
(x^2 - 9)(x + 2) = 0
(x - 3)(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0
As any of the 3 above factors can equal zero the solutions are
x = 3, -3 , -2.
So the answer is E.
Problem 1
The Blue Jays had the most passing yards. Circle the "passing" column, which is column 1. Then look for the largest value in this column. This largest value is 108 which belongs to the Blue Jays.

Problem 2
The answer is choice B. To get this answer, you multiply every value inside the matrix by -5
