To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You need to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:

c^{2}=b^{2}+a^{2}

Where <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse and the legs are<em> a</em> and <em>b.</em>

2. Now, you must substitute the values given in the problem above and solve for <em>b</em>:

(2b)^{2}=b^{2}+12^{2}\\4b^{2}=b^{2}+144\\4b^{2}-b^{2}=144\\3b^{2}=144\\b=\sqrt{\frac{144}{3}}\\b=6.92

Therefore, the answer is: The value of <em>b</em> is 6.92

, which is a whole.

Moving to the question, a total of 25% + 5% = 30% of the time is used up by commercials and credits.

The time left for the program is 100% - 30% = 70%.

Find the solution for y=2x-1 y=3x+2
ziro4ka [17]
ANSWER: (-3,-7)
Set them equal to each other so, 2x-1=3x+2 to find x. You should get x= -3


Then you plug in -3 for x to find Y for either y=2x-1 or y=3x+2. I’m picking y=3x+2 so when you plug in -3 to x it will be y=3(-3)+2 = -7 . So therefore y=-7
