We can solve this problem using the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem states, that with hypotenuse c, and legs a and b, a² +b² = c², and since this is a right triangle, that principle is true here. In this problem, we have the length of the hypotenuse and leg a. So, we can insert the values of the variables and then simplify to find out the length of b. 15²+b²=20²b²=400-225b²=175b=√175

A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associ
lara [203]

Answer:

<u>The number of associates = 6  and the number of partners = 4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of associates = x

let the number of partners  = y

The law firm assigned a total of 10 lawyers

∴ x + y = 10

∴ y = 10 - x ⇒ (1)

$8000 per day charged for these lawyers, The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $600 and the daily rate for each partner is $1100.

∴ 600x + 1100 y = 8000 ⇒ (2)

By substitute from (1) at (2)

600 x + 1100 (10 - x) = 8000

solve for x

600 x + 11000 - 1100 x = 8000

-500 x = -3000

x = -3000/-500 = 6

At (1) to find y

y = 10 - 6 = 4

<u>So, the number of associates = 6  and the number of partners = 4</u>

A circle has a circumference of 361\pi361π361, pi. What is the diameter of the circle?
denpristay [2]
Remember, C=\pi d, where C is circumference and tex]d[/tex] is the diameter. They are related by a constant \pi (pi).

We can solve the above equation for d and then substitute our known values.
C=\pi d

d= \dfrac{C}{ \pi } =  \dfrac{361  \pi }{ \pi } = 361 \ units
