The sides of a right triangle can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2
c is the hypotenuse (the longest side) of the right triangle and a and b are the two other legs. Knowing any two sides of the right triangle, you can find the other using this formula.
Hope this helps!
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
6+0.1x=0.15x+8
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
0.1x+6=0.15x+8
Step 2: Subtract 0.15x from both sides.
0.1x+6−0.15x=0.15x+8−0.15x
−0.05x+6=8
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
−0.05x+6−6=8−6
−0.05x=2
Step 4: Divide both sides by -0.05.
-0.05x/-0.05=2/-0.05
So, the answer for this problem is x=-40
Ok. So, if 8 pens cost £12. Then we would divide £12 by 8. Each pen costs £1.5.
So now we are going to multiply £1.5 and 10. £1.5*10=15.
The total of 10 pens is £15.
