The equation used to find the missing lengths:
9 = __SR (5^2 + x^2)__
As long as it is a right triangle, this is called the Pythagorean Theorem
{9}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {5}^{2}  \\  \sqrt{ {9}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{( {x}^{2}  +  {5}^{2} )}  \\ 9= \sqrt{( {x}^{2}  +  {5}^{2} )}


** FYI- if you wanted to SOLVE FOR THE MISSING SIDE X, then just switch around the original equation solving in terms of x:
{9}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {5}^{2}  \\  {x}^{2}  =  {9}^{2}  -  {5}^{2}  \\ x= \sqrt{( {9}^{2} -  {5}^{2})}  =  \sqrt{(81 - 25)}  \\
x =  \sqrt{56}  =  \sqrt{(8 \times 7)}   \\ x=  \sqrt{(4 \times 14)}  =  \sqrt{4}\times  \sqrt{14}  \\ x = 2 \sqrt{14}

Jessiah has 6 more pencils than grace. miles has twice as many pencils as jessia. they have a total of 50 pencils together. how
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Jessiah has 14 pencils

Miles has 28 pencils

Grace has 8 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume that you mean Jessaih instead of Jessia because otherwise it would be impossible to solve

Let the # of Jessaih's pencils equal j, # of Grace's pencils equal g, # of Miles' pencils equal m,

j=g+6

m=2j

So m=2(g+6) or 2g+12

Therefore, g+g+6+2g+12, or 4g+18=50, so g = 8

j=8+6, which is 14

m = 2(14), which is 28
