I believe this just uses the Pythagorean Theorem. A^2+B^2=C^2. So:
15^2+B^2=25^2. Simplified this is,
225+B^2=625
625-225=400
B^2=400
√ B=<span>√ 400
</span>B=20
Answer:
x=1/2,-2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
You do 28, which is the original cost, then you take that 15% off to do that you multiply 28×.15 and you get 4.2 and subtract that from original cost and you get 23.8 then to get the cost after tax you do 23.8×.0675 and you get 1.6 then you add that to 23.8 and get 25.4 dollars
It is (7x)
^(2/3). If we look at our exponent laws (SEE ATTACHMENT), we can see that we can express our equation as so.
