Girls = x
boys = y

y = 92 - x
y = 17 + 2x

y = 92 - x
-y= -17 - 2x
0 = 75 - 3x
3x = 75
x = 25

25 girls play sports at the school
y = 92 - 25
y = 67

67 boys play sports at the school

Solve using perfect square factoring patterns. y2 + 14y + 49 = 0
liberstina [14]
Y² + 14y + 49 = 0

We know a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)²
(y)² + 2 x 7 x y + (7)² = 0
(y + 7)² = 0
y = -7

y = -7

In a right triangle the length of a hypotenuse is c and the length of one leg is a, and the length of the other leg is b, what i
nevsk [136]

The Pythagorean theorem tells you ...

... c² = a² + b²

... 13² = 12² + b² . . . . . fill in the given numbers

... 169 - 144 = b² . . . . .subtract 12²

... √25 = b . . . . . . . . . take the square root

... b = 5 . . . . . . The value of b you're looking for.

_____

The numbers {5, 12, 13} make what is called a "Pythagorean triple" a set of integers that satisfies the relation of the Pythagorean theorem. These, and the triple {3, 4, 5} are often seen in algebra problems. It can be worthwhile to remember these numbers.
