Answer:
The number is 42.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the unknown number.
"two less than a number" is x - 2
Quotient means the result of a division.
(x - 2)/5 = 8
Multiply both sides by 5.
x - 2 = 40
Add 2 to both sides.
x = 42
Answer: The number is 42.
Check.
Start with 42. 2 less than 42 is 40. The quotient of 40 and 5 is 40/5 which is 8. The answer is correct.
Answer: 37 units
Step-by-step explanation:
This also works as the height of the triangle.
This also works as the base of the triangle.
Let's call pink ''a'', and blue ''b''. The side we're looking for ''c'' is the hypothenuse.
To find the values of a and b, use the area formula of a square and solve for a side. In this case, since we're going to need the squared values, this step can be omitted.

![s=\sqrt[]{A}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=s%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7BA%7D)
Let's work with Blue.
![s=\sqrt[]{144units^2} \\s=12units](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=s%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B144units%5E2%7D%20%5C%5Cs%3D12units)
Now Pink.
![s=\sqrt[]{1225units^2}\\s=35units](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=s%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B1225units%5E2%7D%5C%5Cs%3D35units)
So we have a triangle with a base of 35 units and a height of 12 units.
Now let's use the pythagoream's theorem to solve.
![c^2=a^2+b^2\\c=\sqrt[]{a^2+b^2} \\c=\sqrt[]{(12units)^2+(35units)^2}\\c=\sqrt[]{144units^2+1225units^2}\\ c=\sqrt[]{1369units^2}\\ c=37units](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=c%5E2%3Da%5E2%2Bb%5E2%5C%5Cc%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Ba%5E2%2Bb%5E2%7D%20%5C%5Cc%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%2812units%29%5E2%2B%2835units%29%5E2%7D%5C%5Cc%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B144units%5E2%2B1225units%5E2%7D%5C%5C%20c%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B1369units%5E2%7D%5C%5C%20c%3D37units)
