In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is √2 x the legs. In this case, the value of x is 
.
There are 5280 feet in a mile
There are 3600 seconds in an hour
to get 40 miles per hour
we multiply 40 by 5280 and divide by 3600
40 * 5280 / 3600
this gets us 58.666666...
but since they want us to round to the nearest whole number, our answer would be 59 feet per second
X's cancel 5y = 20 y= 4 X=0
Its 26.315% or rounded to 26.32% commission
