The square root of 2.25 is 1.5
X= assistant's wage
x+15= instructor's wage
Add their wages set equal to $65
x + (x + 15)= 65
combine like terms
2x + 15= 65
subtract 15 from both sides
2x= 50
divide both sides by 2
x= $25 assistant's wage
x+15= 25 + 15= $40 instructor's wage
ANSWER: (C) $25 hourly wage of assistant
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a triangle is 
The triangles that can be made is the triangle that has legs 20 and 50 and the triangle that has legs 20 and 10.
Since there are 2 of each triangles, we get:
The answer that fits is the first option.
<span>Hypotenuse = 26 mm </span>
1st Leg = 10 mm
Other Leg = x.
By Pythagoras Theorem:
x² + 10² = 26²
<span>x² + 100 = 676 </span>
x² = 676 - 100
x² = 576
x = √576
x = 24
<span>The other leg is 24 mm</span>
