Answer:

a=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

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

a^2 +15^2 = 17^2

a^2 +225 = 289

Subtract 225 from each side

a^2 +225-225=289-225

a^2 = 64

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(64)

a = 8

Aldo made a shirt using 1/5 meters of yellow fabric and 2/3 meters of red fabric. How many meters of fabric did he use in all? W
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Aldo's shirt was made of 13/15 meters of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add these fractions. However, in order to do so, we need to find the LCM, which in this case, is 15.

1/5 + 2/3 =

3/15 + 10/15 =

13/15

This fraction is also written in simplest form. Therefore, Aldo's shirt was made of 13/15 meters of fabric.

Hope this helps! :D
