Answer:

  35.36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For an isosceles right triangle, the hypotenuse is √2 times the length of one side. So, the length of one side of your deck is ...

  (50 ft) = √2 × side length

  (50 ft)/√2 = side length ≈ 35.36 ft

Also SSA is not congruent because we don't know if the unknown side is equal another thing is SSA spelled back word is A## so lets just leave it at that

Jay has spent 3/8 of his life working for his current company. If Jay has been 8 3working for his current company for 15 years,
Tom [10]

Answer:

40 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jay has spent 3/8 of his life working for his current company and it is stated that he has been at the current company for 15 years, we can divide 15 years by 3 to find out how much a single part of the fraction (1/8) is.

15 / 3 = 5 years

5 years = 1/8

Now that we know how many years is a single part of his life we simply multiply this value by 8 to calculate how many years would equal his total life or in other words how old Jay currently is.

5 years * 8 = 40 years old
