Answer:

15.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use Pythagorean theorem:

hypotenuse ² =( leg 1)² + (leg 2)²

Hypotenuse is 18 ft.

leg 1 = 9 ft.

18² = 9² + (leg2)²

(leg 2)² = 243

(leg 2) = +√243 ≈ 15.6 (ft)

Why are the factors in your multiplication sentences in a different order​
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

In multiplication, the order doesn't matter.

2 rows of 7 and 7 rows of 2 is the same.

If you have seven 2's, that's the same as two 7's.

See here:

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 14

7 + 7 = 14

Or:

2 * 7 = 7 * 2 = 14

=> 0.0625 * 100

=> 6.25%
