WOW that's tough to read all squished together!!!

Jayden and Sheridan both tried to find the missing side of the right triangle. A right triangle is shown. One leg is labeled as 7 centimeters. The hypotenuse is labeled as 13 centimeters.

Jayden's Work

Sheridan's Work

a2 + b2 = c2

a2 + b2 = c

272 + 132 = c272 + b2 = 132

49 + 169 = c

249 + b2 = 169

218 = c2b2 = 120

Square root 218 equals square root c squared.

Square root b squared equals  

square root 120.

14.76 ≈ cb ≈  

10.95Is either of them correct?  

***************************************************

In a right triangle

hypotenuse^2 = leg1 ^2 + leg2^2

13^2 = 7^2 + leg2^2

leg2^2 = 120

leg 2 = 10.9544511501

Basically, whoever said 10.95 is correct.

At a fast food​ restaurant, 10 cheeseburgers​ w/onion and 5 orders of french fries contain 6900 calories. 5 cheeseburgers​ w/oni
Leona [35]

Write the equations,

10 c + 5 f = 6900

5c + 3f = 3660

Double,

10c + 6f = 7320

Subtract,

f = 7320 - 6900 = 420

10 c = 6900 - 5f = 6900 - 2100 = 4800

c = 480

Answer: Cheeseburger 480 calories, fries 420 calories

Check:

10 (480) + 5 (420) = 4800 + 2100 = 6900 good

5(480) + 3(420) = 2400 + 1260 = 3660 good

The product of four and a number, decreased by seven
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

As per what is given

- the product of 4 and a number decreased by 7 (4 times that number let us call it x, minus 7)

- equals 100, the equation formed equals 100

Form an equation;

4(x - 7) = 100

Solve using inverse operations;

4(x - 7) = 100

  /4        /4

x - 7 = 25

  +7     +7

x = 32
