Answer:

Since a Pythagorean triple is three positive integers a, b, and c such that (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2), first take the sum of the squares of the two legs and make an estimate. For example, 3, 4, and 5 is a Pythagorean triple since 9+16=25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, you can plug them into the Pythagorean Theorem, either mentally or manually, and see if the resulting equation is true.

But the best way to go about it is to memorize some of the the lower level triples, like 3-4-5, or 9-12-15. Then, when you see a higher level set, you can form a proportion or factorization and check you findings.

Have a great day!

Solve for y. -3 = 7 (y - 9/7)
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 3 = 7 (y - 9/7)

y - 3 = 7*y + 7*-9/7

y - 3 = 7y - 9

y - 7y = 3 - 9

-6y = -6

y = -6/-6

y = 1

probe:

1 - 3 = 7(1 - 9/7)

-2 = 7*-2/7

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:Total amount of money collected for arena J = $5400

Step-by-step explanation:

Section J in an arena has 20 rows.

Each row has 15 seats. This can also means that section J has 20 rows and 15 columns. The rows and column form a rectanglar shape. This means that the total number of seats would be number of rows × number of columns

= 15 × 20 = 300 seats

All tickets cost $18 each. If all the seats are sold, that means that each seat cost $18 each.

Total amount of money collected for arena J would be total number of seats × the cost per seat.

Total amount of money collected for arena J = 300 × 18 = $5400
