In this problem you will need to use the Pythagorean theorem (c^2=a^2+b^2).
The a and b represents the two edges, while c is the diagonal side and it is called the hypotenuse. Since you already know what the hypotenuse is and what one of the sides already are you just have to use the problem: c^2-a^2=b^2. Then if you plug the data you already have into the problem you will get 10^2-6^2=b^2. That then equals 100-36=b^2. Then you subtract and get b^2=64. Then you square root both sides and you get the answer b=8.

Andrew [12]

The two events that created the most tension in the story include:

  • Mrs. White suggests that her husband wishes for four hands for her.
  • Mr. White paid Sergeant-Major Morris a trifle for the paw.

<h3>What is tension?</h3>

It should be noted that tension in literature simply means the sense of something ominous in the literary work. It's a feeling that something is about to happen.

The Monkey's Paw is a horror short story by author W. W. Jacobs. In the story, three wishes are granted to the owner of The Monkey's Paw, but the wishes come with a price for interfering with fate.

It should be noted that Mrs. White suggesting that her husband wish for four hands for her created tension in the story as the readers were eager to know what happened in the story. Also, it should be noted Mr. White paying Sergeant-Major Morris a trifle for the paw created tension.

Fed [463]

We have that the term from the expression that represents the amount of money Steven spent on cinnamon rolls is

X=3.19p

From the question we are told that

m,n,p, and q are whole numbers,

Expression Total amount spent =2.35m + 2.75n + 3.19p + 3.39q

Cost of cinnamon rolls=\$3.19

Generally the equation for the Money spent on cinnamon roll   is mathematically given as

X=No of cinnamon roll * Cost of cinnamon roll

X=3.19*p

X=3.19p
