The answer itss b= 41.5 units
For this problem your equation will be x+(x+1)+(x+2)=537
Multiply and Simplify:
x+x+1+x+2=537
3x+3=537
Subtract 3 from both sides:
3x+3-3=537-3
3x=534
Divide both sides by 3:
3x/3=537/3
x=179
179 is the middle number so: 178+179+180=537
180 is the third number.
Answer:
8.11
Step-by-step explanation:
You round it up because the 3rd number (thousandths) is 5 or above, and since it's 7 you round that up and drop off the last number.
Answer:
4×sqrt(5) inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean theorem states that (for right triangles) if you square each shorter side and add those together, you will get the sum of the longest side (hypotenuse) squared.
This is commonly written as:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the hypotenuse.
((For right triangles this will always be opposite the 90° angle.))
Since you know one of the shorter sides and the hypotenuse, rewrite the equation as such:
c^2 - b^2 = a^2, where a is the unknown length
This goes to:
sqrt(c^2 - b^2) = a
sqrt((12in)^2 - (8in)^2) = a
sqrt(144sqin - 64sqin) = sqrt(80sqin) = a
This simplifies to:
sqrt(16sqin)×sqrt(5sqin) = 4in×sqrt(5sqin) = a
