Answer: C— 9 m
Steps:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + b^2 = 15^2
144 + b^2 = 225
b^2 = 81
b = 9
5(2x - 4) = 45
10x - 20 = 45
10x = 45 + 20
10x = 65
x = 65/10 reduces to 13/2 or 6 1/2
Answer:
x= 12
Step-by-step explanation
3x+8=44
subtract 8 from both sides: 3x+8= 44
-8 -8
3x=36
then divide by 3 on both sides
3x=36
3 3
which leaves : x=12
my explaining is horrible but i hope this helps
