From the two right triangles, you can write the following equations using the Pythagorean theorem. Let's call that shared leg in the middle "y"

y^2 + b^2 = a^2
y^2 + c^2 = x^2


y^2 + b^2 = a^2
re-write this to get "y" alone for substitution.
y^2 = a^2 - b^2
substitute (a^2 - b^2) for y^2 in the other equation. y^2 + c^2 = x^2

a^2 - b^2 + c^2 = x^2

Now put in the values given for a,b,c to solve for x

(7.1)^2 - (5.6)^2 + (5.7)^2 = x^2
51.54 = x^2
square root
7.2 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for direct proportionality =

y = bx

where y = dependent variable

b = constant

x = independent variable

There is positive proportionality is two variables are positively related to each other.

In this question, price of lunches is the dependent variable while number of lunches is the independent variable

$16 = b4

Divide both sides by 4 to find b

b = $4

Describe two methods that can be used to find the area of the composite figure.
vekshin1

You can draw a line to make a square and a rectangle to help find the area. The other method would be to form 2 squares and 1 rectangle.

This is probably wrong but I hope it helps!
