Since a^2+b^2=c^2 becomes 20^2+b^2=29^2, we solve for b:

400+b^2=841

b^2=441

b=21

So the length of b is 21 units.

Hope this helped!

Answer↑

Steps↓
Convert 2 1/2 to an improper fraction:
2 + 2+ 1 over 2

Once you add the numbers, that will be 5/2.

Now, multiply that with 1/7:
5/2 • 1/7

Your answer will be 5/14

Therefore, Rock A weighs 5/14 pounds
