A) 7.2, -7.2, 7.2
B) -3.5, 3.5, 3.5
C) 5 1/2, -5 1/2, 5 1/2
Answer:
Use the Pythagorean theorem for right triangles to solve this
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where 'a' and 'b' are the legs of the triangle and 'c' is the hypotenuse
so:
8^2 + b^2 = 17^2 solve for the second leg, b
64 + b^2 = 289
b^2 = 289 - 64= 225
b = 15

Step-by-step explanation:
I understand that it means that out of every 10 hours, a cat spends 7 sleeping (not 7 hours in a day).
this means that a cat is sleeping

a percentage stays constant, this means that a cat sleeps 70 % of each 10 hours, but also 70% of the day.
