So, we know that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Right? That is called the Pythagorean Theorem.
In this case. We can say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c.
NOTE: It doesn't really matter whether 39 is a or b. a & b are just the two legs of the right triangle.
So, if we say that 39 is a, 40 is b, and x is c. We can plug it into the Pythagorean Theorem.
39^2 + 40^2 = x^2
I'll let you take it from there.
B
The purple balls constitute 1/3 of the amount of balls there, so you’re that likely to pluck one out.
Answer:
the answer to your question is (x+2) * (x-12)
Step 1: 13+5x=30
step 2: subtract 13 from both sides; then youd get 5x=17
step 3: divide by 5
step 4: x=3.4
