Answer: 17 inches

Explanation: so we have a triangle with the two side lengths 8 and 15 and we’re trying to find the hypotenuse. so using the pythagorean theorem, we have 8^2 + 15^2 = c^2. when we solve we get 64 + 225 = c^2, which is 289 = c^2. next, we find the square root of both sides and c = 17 inches.

hope this helped!

How is the rate 4.5%
vichka [17]
The number in brackets represents the percentage change
1.045
the 1 shows that it is an increase and the .045 shows the percent
for example 1.55 would be 55% increase and 1.555 would be 55.5% increase

What is the value of when x = 16 and y = 2?<br> 32<br> 02<br> 2<br> 2<br> 4<br> Hi
nasty-shy [4]
If you are multiplying 16 times 2 then 32 would be your answer. If you are subtracted your answer would be 14. If you are adding them your answer would be 18. I don’t really see what sign is being used.
