Answer: C) x = 13</h3>
====================================================
Work Shown:
We have a right triangle with legs a = 5 and b = 12. The hypotenuse is c = x which is unknown for now.
Use the pythagorean theorem to find x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = x^2
25 + 144 = x^2
169 = x^2
x^2 = 169
x = sqrt(169) .... apply the square root to both sides
x = 13
Answer:
You can tell because, as x increases/decreases, y increases/decreases at the same rate EACH TIME. This way, no matter how many times the proportions increase OR decrease, the ratio between x and y always stays the same.
13 x 3=39
70 x 3= 210
