Using the pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), this would make the equation 48^2 + b^2 = 80^2 (the hypotenuse must be plugged in as the "c" value).

Once you solve, this becomes 2304 + b^2 = 6400.

Subtract 2304 from 6400 and you get b^2 = 4096.

Take the square root of 4096 and you get b=64.


The answer is 64.

Which sentence contains an inappropriate shift in tense?
Montano1993 [528]
C. Hummingbirds are hovering over the geraniums while caterpillars munched leaves.

This is because the tense of the hummingbirds is in the "ing" form, while the tense of the caterpillars is in past tense, or the "ed" form.  Because these tenses do not agree, it is an inappropriate shift in verb tense.

kenny has 9 more comic books than bobbie. together they have 95 comic books. define a variable. then write an equation that coul
Hoochie [10]
Number of comic books Bobbie has - b

95 = (9 + b) + b

Since 95 is the total number of comic books both boys have, it is equal to both boys' books added together. However, since we don't know how many books Kenny has, and only that he has 9 more than Bobbie, we can define that as (9 + b), or nine more than b. Then, we add b again, because (9 + b) is the number of books Kenny has, and if we add that to the number of books Bobbie has, it will equal the total of 95 comic books.
