Answer:
19.2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1st Case:</u>
4 and 5 are legs of the right triangle.
Using the pythagorean therom: a^2+b^2=c^2
We can say that 4^2+5^2=x^2
16+25=x^2
41=x^2
x=√41
√41 is about 6.4
x=6.4
<u>2nd Case</u>
5 is the hypotenuse of the right triangle and 4 is the legs.
Using the pythagorean therom: a^2+b^2=c^2
We can say that 4^2+x^2=5^2
16+x^2=25
x^2=9
x=3
<u>Final Step</u>
We need to multiply the two possible lengths for x. So for case 1 the length of x was 6.4 and for case two the length was 3. 6.4*3=19.2

The weight of the kitten will be no less than the weight of the puppy in 1.4 + 1.2x ≥ 2.8 + 0.5x week.
<h3>What is Inequality?</h3>
Statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.
Given:
A puppy weighs 2.8 pounds at birth and gained about 0.5 pounds per week.
A kitten weighs 1.4 pounds at birth and gains about 1.2 pounds per week.
puppy: 2.8 + 0.5x
Kitten: 1.4 + 1.2x
As, kitten is no less than puppy.
Kitten ≥ puppy
1.4 + 1.2x ≥ 2.8 + 0.5x
hence, the weight of the kitten will be no less than the weight of the puppy in 1.4 + 1.2x ≥ 2.8 + 0.5x week.
