Answer:  The correct option is (B) 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the length of the leg s in the triangle shown in the figure.

From the figure, we note that

the given triangle is a right-angled one, where

length of the hypotenuse, H = √18 units,

length of one leg, P = 3 units

and

length of the other leg, s = B =?.

From Pythagoras theorem, we have

H^2=P^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow (\sqrt{18})^2=3^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow 18=9+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=18-9\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=9\\\\\Rightarrow B=3.

Thus, the length of the leg s is 3 units.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

What is the solution to<br> 4/5=20/(x-5)?<br> answer please
viktelen [127]

Answer:

x =30

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to evaluate the solution 4/5=20/(x-5)?

solution

the first step to take is to cross multiply

4/5=20/(x-5)

we have,

5 x 20 = 4 ( x -5)

100 = 4x - 20

combine the like terms

100+20 = 4x

120 = 4x

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

120/4 = 4x/4

30 = x

x =30

therefore the value of x in the expression 4/5=20/(x-5)? is 30
