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

Short answer: 39
y = 7x - 3
f(x) = y = 7x - 3 Though there are some slight differences between f(x) and y, it is safe to say that f(x) acts (in this case) as a y value. So the question now is what does y(6) mean? 

y(6) means exactly the same thing as what f(6) would mean. The both mean that where ever you see an x, put in a 6. 

So y(6) means 7x - 3 = 7*6 - 3 = 39
