X² +(x+1)²=5²
2x² +2x +1=25
x²+x-12=0
(x-3)(x+4)=0
x=3, or x=-4, which is impossible
so x=3, x+1=4
one leg is 3, the other leg is 4

MAVERICK [17]

We have been given that Marcus works for 26 hours each week and 48 weeks each year.

Thus in a year he works for 26 \times 48 = 1248 hours.

Now, we have been given that Marcus earns $8.40 per hour.

Therefore, in 1248 hours, he earns

1248 \times 8.40\\
\\
=\$ 10483.2

Marcus has to pay tax if he earns more than $10,000. Now we have calculated that he earns $ 10483.2  which is higher than $10,000.

Therefore, Marcus has to to pat tax.

and
hypotenuse = 8 (twice of short leg)

so answer is A.
