I used the Pythagorean formula, which is a² + b² = c².
a² and b² are the two side legs while c² is the hypotenuse.
One of the side is 42 - 8 = 34 cm.
a car travels 1/2 of the distance between two cities in 3/5 of an hour .at this rate what fraction of the distance between the t

Remark
The easiest way to do this is to set up a proportion. But be careful how you do it.
Call the distance d
1/2 d / 3/5 hour = x * d / 1 hour
Divide both sides by d
1/2 // 3/5 = x / 1 Cross multiply
1/2 * 1 = 3/5 x divide by 3/5
Invert the bottom fraction and multiply.
The answer is 5/6 of the distance will be covered in 1 hour.

Hello there! We are given the following equation and want to simplify it:
First, let's use the Distributive Property:
For this step, we are going to let:
After applying this version of the Distributive Property, we are given the equation:
We're going to use the distributive party again, but a slightly different version that's almost the same as first:
Using this on both terms of the equation changes the equation to:
Now, we just remove the parenthesis and combine like terms
This should be your answer. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
