Mathematics

Answer:

9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem states

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

Substituting in what we know (one leg is 12 and the hypotenuse is 15)

12^2 +b^2 = 15^2

144+ b^2 = 225

Subtract 144 from each side

144-144 +b^2 = 225-144

b^2 =81

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(81)

b = 9

Y=6x 2x+3y=20 solving equation using substitution
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

x = 1, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 6x

2x + 3y = 20

Plug y as 6x in the second equation and solve for x.

2x + 3(6x) = 20

2x + 18x = 20

20x = 20

\frac{20x}{20}= \frac{20}{20}

x = 1

Plug x as 1 in the first equation and solve for y.

y = 6(1)

y = 6
