Answer:

it depends

Step-by-step explanation:

If 17 is the hypotenuse

c=17\\\\b=12\\\\a=?\\\\c^{2} =a^2+b^2\\\\17^2=a^2+12^2\\\\17^2-12^2=a^2\\\\(17-12)(17+12)=a^2\\\\5(27)=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{9*3*5} \\\\a=3\sqrt{15} \\\\a=11.6

if you are looking for the hypotenuse

a=17\\\\b=12\\\\c=?\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\17^2+12^2=c^2\\\\289+144=c^2\\\\433=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{433} \\\\c=20.8

6 + 3x = 2(2 + x)<br><br> What is this answer I need help please anytime soon
Aloiza [94]
6+3x = 2(2 + x)

First we will need to open the parenthesis by multiplying the number that’s in front of them:

6+3x=4+2x

Now we need to separate the numbers from the X. By subtracting 2x from both sides:

6+3x=4+2x
-2x -2x
————————
6+x=4

Now we subtract 6 from both sides.

6+x=4
-6 -6
—————
X = -2
