Answer:
x=20
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem is
a^2 +b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.
The legs are x and 15 and the hypotenuse is 25
x^2 + 15^2 = 25^2
x^2 +225 = 625
Subtract 225 from each side
x^2 +225-225 = 625-225
x^2 = 400
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(400)
x = 20
Furthest from 0, so I am going to take the absolute value of these numbers. The absolute value will tell us how far away from 0 these numbers are.
|-1/2| = |- 0.5| = 0.5
|8/9| = |0.88| = 0.88
|0.2| = 0.2
so the number furthest from 0 is 8/9
The number is 6 because 14+6=20 and 6 is less than 14. Hope this helps.
Answer:
