Answer:
The answer is a. 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve this question by using Pythagoras theorem to relate the sides of a right angled triangle.
Here,
Hypotenuse of the given triangle(c)=75
Two sides of right angled triangle are:
a=72
b=?
Then,
for a given right angled triangle abc,
Using Pythagoras theorem,
Squaring on both sides,
or,
or, 
or,
or,
∴
So, the value of b is obtained to 21 by the use of Pythagoras theorem.
Answer:
8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
<em>Represent the police station with P, Library with L; Fire station with F</em>
<em>The first statement can be represented as:</em>
<em></em>
<em>The second can be represented as:</em>
Required
Determine the distance between the police station and the fire station (P - F)
--- (1)
--- (2)
Substitute 5 for L - P in (1)
Add 3 to both sides
Answer:
4+3x
It's pretty straight forward, you have the number 4 that is added to the rest of the expression because sum is addition, and the product of 2 numbers is multiplication so it would make 3(x) or 3x, which results in 4+3x.
Answer:
In 6 months (at the fifth month they are equal in price)
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the month as x.
Plan A's equation: 8x + 25
Plan B's equation: 12x + 5
8x + 25 < 12x + 5
Solve.
-4x < -20
x > 5
In 6 months (at the fifth month they are equal in price)
