For the following right triangle, find the side length x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

\sqrt{113} = x

7^2 + 8^2 = x^2

49 + 64 = x^2 add like terms

113 = x^2 find the root for both sides

\sqrt{113} = x

tatuchka [14]

Answer: $101.25

Step-by-step explanation:

= $101.25

Therefore, the cost is $101.25

Solve for C.<br> -5/8c=20
iris [78.8K]
-5/8c = 20....multiply both sides by -8/5 (this cancels out the -5/8 on the left
c = 20(-8/5)
c = -160/5
c = - 32

check..
-5/8(-32) = 20
160/8 = 20
20 = 20 (correct)

so c = -32
