Answer:

The answer is C) 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hypotenuse (longest side) of a right triangle, you need to use the Pythagorean Theorem. The formula for the hypotenuse is a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

5^2 (five squared) equals 25, and 12^2 (twelve squared) equals 144.

25 + 144 = 169

Next, find the square root of 169. It is 13. 13 is the length of the hypotenuse.

I hope this helped! :)

Courtlynn combines 7/8 cup sour cream with 1/2 cup cream cheese.she then divided the mixture between 2 bowls.How much mixture do

kobusy [5.1K]

$\frac{7}{8} + \frac{4}{8} = \frac{11}{8}$ . You then divide that by 2: $\frac{11}{8} / 2 = \frac{11}{8} * \frac{1}{2} = \frac{11}{16}$ . So 11/16 of the mixture is put in each bowl.
