Find the length of the hypotenuse in the right triangle, if one leg is 15 and the other leg is 8

Mathematics

The equation for finding the hypotenuse is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. In this case, a = 15 and b = 8, so 15^2 + 8^2 = 289. √289 = 17, which is your answer. I hope this helps!

I WANT SOLUTION AND EXPLANATION ANSWER IS GIVEN AT LAST!!!
Serga [27]

let the numbers be x and y

x + y = 1600 ----*

12%x = 20%y

0.12x = 0.2y

y = <u>0</u><u>.</u><u>1</u><u>2</u><u>x</u>

0.2

y = 0.6x

substitute in * eqn

x + 0.6x = 1600

1.6x = 1600

x = 1000

then,

y = 0.6*1000

y = 600

the numbers are 1000 and 600

2(1 – 8x) = 1/2 (8 - 64x)​
faust18 [17]

Answer:

x=\frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

A quick review on PEMDAS, the order of how to solve an equation:

P - parentheses. When parentheses are being used, you have to do everything inside them before doing everything outside of them.

E - exponents. We'll skip these, since there aren't any exponents we need to worry about in this equation.

M/D - multiplication/division. I include these both together because they can be done at the same time.

A/S = addition/subtraction. Can also be done at the same time.

Some other things to note:

You add all the things with an x attached to it, and you add all the things without an x attached to it, and these never cross.

When you bring something from one side of an equal sign to another, you make it negative.

Let's solve for x using what we've learned:

2(1-8x)=\frac{1}{2} (8-64x)\\2-16x=4-32x\\16x=2\\x=\frac{2}{16} \\x=\frac{1}{8}

After a 2 1/2 hour rainstorm, there are 5 inches of water in a bucket outside. What is the rate per inch?
xeze [42]

Answer:

2 inches per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/2 hours is equivalent to 150 minutes.

Set up a proportion; let x equal inches of rain

\frac{5}{150}=\frac{x}{60}

Cross multiply -> 150x=300

Divide both sides by 150 to get -> x=2
