Step-by-step explanation:

Mr Smith offers to take extra help session for students after school

The day after the help session 11 of his students were talking and found out that only 2 had stayed up for the help session

= 2/11

There were actually a total number of 24 students that stayed

We are asked to find the number of student that Mr Smith teaches throughout the day

Let x represent the number of students that were taught during the day

Therefore, the number of student that Mr Smith teaches during the day can be calculated as follows

2/11=24/x

Cross multiply both sides

2 × x = 24 × 11

2x= 264

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2=264/2

x= 132

Hence Mr Smith teaches 132 students during the day.

Use the pythagoren theorem to solve x

defon

Well the equation is (A^2)+(B^2)=(C^2)

A= x
B= 2x
C will always be the longest side because it is the Hypotenuse = 25

So if you plug in those numbers into the equation...

(x^2) + (2x^2) = (25^2)

x^2 + 4x^2 = 625

Combine like terms

5x^2 = 625

Divide by five to both sides

x^2 = 125

Then Square root,

x = sqrt(125)

x = sqrt(25* 5)

x = 5sqrt(5)
