Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that the variables a and b in the formula are the legs and c is the hypotenuse. So that means that 15 and x are the legs and 17 is the hypotenuse. Plug those numbers where they go in the formula like below:
15^2+x^2=17^2
Go ahead and square the 15 and 17 to simplify it a little.
225+x^2=289
Now, get the x by itself by subtracting 225 from each side
x^2=64
Take the square root of each side to remove the squared on x and solve.
x=8
Answer:
$1.59 per gallon is the answer
Step-by-step explanation: You simply need to divide 12.72 by 8. that will give you 1.59. So the answer is the bottom right answer, which can be read as $1.59 per gallon.
Hope all of that makes sense! :)
Answer: 1/2
<u>Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD</u>
(2/12*1/1) + (1/3+4/4)
<u>Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
</u>
2/12+4/12
<u>The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.</u>
2+4/12 = 6/12
<u>This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor </u>
6/12 ÷ 6/6 = 1/2
<u>Therefore:
</u>
2/12 + 1/3 = 1/2
Consecutive numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
As we can see it's the latest plus 1
So,
x, x + 1, x + 1 + 1, x + 1 + 1 + 1
x, x + 1, x + 2, x + 3 and so on
So it's x + 1.
