The 3 is distributed to the a+b inside the brackets........
Answer:
c = 3√5 ≈ 6.708
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem because this is a right triangle.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2 + 6^2 = c^2
9 + 36 = c^2
45 = c^2
√45 = c
<u>c = 3√5 ≈ 6.708</u>
Answer:
1.5mm
Step-by-step explanation:
100x = 150. x = height is one $5 coin
x = 150/100
x = 1.5
Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)
