Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
shorter leg = x
longer leg = x + 3
Hypotenuse = x + 6
x² + (x + 3)² = (x + 6)²
x² + x² + 6x + 9 = x² + 12x + 36
2x² + 6x + 9 = x² + 12x + 36
x² - 6x - 27 = 0
(x - 9) ( x + 3) = 0
x = 9 or x = -3 (rejected)
d
310
total no.of students=1872
ratio of boys to girls=7:5
sum of ratio=total of students
12/12=1872
7/12=?
7/12*1872/1=1092which is the number of girls
1872-1092=780which is the number of boys
difference =1092-780= 310
