Anytime you multiply a whole number by a fraction or decimal, you have to make the fraction and decimal increase its value. So 1/4 can be translated into .25 and 5 x .25 is 1.25. 5 x 4 is 20. Since 5 and 4 are both whole numbers, the answer is increased by both.

How do I solve this using the Pythagorean theorem​
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First would need to convert the radical into a number.

And since if you have a perfect square of a radical it goes outside the square root sign, you would take the 3 and square it to make 9 and then take the 2 inside the square root sign and multiply so you have the square root of 18|

Since we have \sqrt{18} as the Leg c we would need to square it, squaring a square root sign would just cause them to be cancelled out and you being left with 18, afterwards find the square of 3, which is 9

18-9=9

square root of 9 = 3

So the 2nd y value minus the first y value and divide it by the 2nd x value minus
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(10-7)/5-3)
the first x value and you should get 3/2
*dont worry the if the number is under and not above it’s not a saying to do to the power of but it’s just saying the order in which to put the x and y values.
