The answer should be 18.6, just substitute x for 2 and y for 3 and solve using PEMDAS :)
The answer is 5 7/8
b/c 2 1/2 = 2 4/8
so then convert 8 3/8 as an improper fraction which is 67/8
and do the same w/ 2 4/8 which is 20/8
the do: 67/8 - 20/8 = 47/8
simplify 47/8 = 5 7/8.
Your answer is 5 7/8 inches of ribbon left.
2 consecutive odd integers...x and x + 2
x + (x + 2) = 36
2x + 2 = 36 <===

Answer: 9</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
a = unknown = leg #1
b = 12 = leg #2
c = 15 = hypotenuse
Plug those values into the pythagorean theorem and solve for 'a'
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + (12)^2 = (15)^2 .... substitution
a^2 + 144 = 225
a^2 = 225 - 144 ... subtracting 144 from both sides
a^2 = 81
a = sqrt(81) .... applying square root to both sides
a = 9
