Use the Pythagorean theorem.

If x is a hypotenuse, then we have:

x^2=4^2+5^2\\\\x^2=16+25\\\\x^2=41\to x=\sqrt{41}

If x is a leg, then we have:

x^2+4^2=5^2\\\\x^2+16=25\ \ \ \ |-16\\\\x^2=9\to x=\sqrt9\to x=3

Answer: \sqrt{41}-3

The distance by road from town A to town B is 257 km. What is 50% of that distance?
Marina86 [1]

Answer: 128.5km

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the information that the distance by road from town A to town B is 257 km. To get 50% of the distance, we simply have to multiply the distance given by 50%. This will be:

= 50% × 257km

= 50/100 × 257km

= 0.5 × 257km

= 128.5km

Therefore, 50% of the distance is 128.5km.

The answer is option A) X + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any polynomial of order n can be expressed in terms of their roots in factors of the form

(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)(x-d)....... = 0

Where a,b,c,d,... are the roots of the polynomial

In the example shown
