Answers:
hypotenuse = 20 feet
longer leg = 16 feet
======================================================
Explanation:
c = x = length of the hypotenuse
a = x-4 = length of one of the legs
b = 12 = length of the other leg
Use the pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + (x-4)^2 = (x)^2
144 + x^2 - 8x + 16 = x^2
144 - 8x + 16 = 0 .... the x^2 terms cancel
160-8x = 0
160 = 8x
8x = 160
x = 160/8
x = 20 is the hypotenuse
x-4 = 20-4 = 16 is the longer leg
--------
Check:
12^2+16^2 = 144+256 = 400
20^2 = 400
Since 12^2+16^2 = 20^2 is true, this means we have a right triangle with legs of 12 and 16, while the hypotenuse is 20. The answer is confirmed.
We need to find what percentage represents the number of Hershey's Cookie Crème Candy Bars in each package, and then compare which one is better.
For package A.
It has 13 Hershey's Cookie Crème Candy Bars out of 25. To find which percentage is 13 out of 25 we do the following:
• Divide 100 by the total amount of candy 25, and multiply the result by 13:
we get the following percentage:
Package A has 52% of Hershey's Cookie Crème Candy Bars.
For package B.
It has 11 Hershey's Cookie Crème Candy Bars out of 20. we do the same as before to find the percentage, only that this time, instead of dividing by 25, we divide 100 by 20, and intead of multiplying by 12, we multiply by 11:
The result is:
Package B has 55% of Hershey's Cookie Crème Candy Bars.
Which package should Alladin buy? He should buy Package B because it has a greater percentage.

Answer:a
a=y
Step-by-step explanation:
Horizontal line (Coordinate Geometry) Definition: A straight line on the coordinate plane where all points on the line have the same y-coordinate. ... A horizontal line is one the goes left-to-right, parallel to the x-axis of the coordinate plane. All points on the line will have the same y-coordinate.
