For each question we must apply the Pythagorean theorem and clear the value of x.
question 5
x = root (14 ^ 2 + 16 ^ 2)
x = root (452)
x = 2raiz (113)
question 6
x = root (8 ^ 2 + 15 ^ 2)
x = 17
question 7
x = root (12 ^ 2 + 12 ^ 2)
x = root (2 * (12 ^ 2))
x = 12raiz (2)
question 8
x = root (18 ^ 2 - 9 ^ 2)
x = root (243)
x = 9raiz (3)
<u>Answer</u>
c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.
<u>Explanation</u>
We are going to compare the 3 choices and then determine the most cost effective.
<em>a. using a paid membership card to buy it at a 10 percent discount.</em>
10% of $100 = 10/100×100 = $10
cost = $100 - $10 = $90
On top of this $90 there is the charges of the membership card.
<em> b. buying it online at a 10 percent discount with a $5 shipping charge.</em>
100%-10% = 90%
90% of 100 = $90
Cost: $90 + $5 = $95
<em>c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.</em>
100% - 10% = 90%
90/100 × 100 = $90. This is the must cost effective method since there is no other cost involved.
Hey.
acc'g to the conditions :
Let Catherine has x
and James has 5 + 3x
Then,

Hence
• Catherine has = x = $9,
• and James has = 5 +3x = 5 + 3(9) = $32
Thanks.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Nothing can be done with the equation because there is no quotient. </em>
If there was, would be able to solve for x.
