Both 8,15,17 and 15,20,25 will form a right triangle
If you need help with these types of problems just go into google and search Pythagorean theory silver and plug in 2/3 side lengths and if the outcome equals the third number, then that means that the side lengths make a right triangle

Let us say the two numbers are x and y and x>y.
The data we have are;
Difference between the numbers are 12.
3 times larger number is equal to 7 times smaller number.
Then we can write;
 ----(1)
 ----(2)
From (1) we can say 
Then substituting  to (2) gives;




Then;


Step-by-step explanation:
so he already down 20 ft so he ascends (goes up) 9 feet, so hes at 11 feet right now. then he descends 12 (goes down) feet so hes at 23 feet. lastly he ascends 15 feet (goes up) more. so the answer is 8
Assume a is not divisible by 10. (otherwise the problem is trivial).
<span>Define R(m) to be the remainder of a^m when divided by 10. </span>
<span>R can take on one of 9 possible values, namely, 1,2,...,9. </span>
<span>Now, consider R(1),R(2),......R(10). At least 2 of them must have the sames value (by the Pigeonhole Principle), say R(i) = R(j) ( j>i ) </span>
<span>Then, a^j - a^i is divisible by 10.</span>
Answer: <em>Multiplying these factors gives the approximate volume of the original body</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>The given convex body can be approximated by a sequence of nested bodies, eventually reaching one of known volume (a hypersphere), with this approach used to estimate the factor by which the volume changes at each step of this sequence.</em>
