Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find Hypotenuse: Pythagorean Theroem

a^2+ b^2= c^2

The legs are A and B

The side that is directly across from the Right angle is C

12^2 + 16^2 =C^2

144+256=400

400 = c^2

Square root on both sides to get rid of c^2

The square root of 400 is 20

c=20

Which graph represents x - 1 ≤ 3

MAVERICK [17]

The first graph.

The equation is x - 1 $\leq$ 3
In order to solve it, you need to get x by itself.
Add 1 to both sides. 3+1=4
x $\leq$ 4

Since this is your sign $\leq$ the arrow has to point towards the left, and the circle needs to be colored in.
