The absolute value 
returns the "positive version" of a number.
In other words, if the number is positive, it remains positive; if the number is negative, it changes sign.
So, if we want 
, we want the "positive version" of x to be 9.

because
I believe it would be 20/15

This is an iteration method for finding the square root.
The ? is also your first initial guess.
? = 10.5
The iteration formula for the square root is actually.
√n = (x + n/x)÷2.
Where x is your guess.
Answer:
b=12
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2+b^2=c^2
(9×9) + b^2= 15×15
81+ b^2= 225
-81. -81
b^2=144
√. √
b= 12
