Answer:

-2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call our other expression y, we can set up an equation tying together 3x + 5, y, and 5x - 7:

$(5x-7)+y=3x+5$

Solving for y by subtracting 5x - 7 from both sides will get us the expression we're looking for:

$y=3x+5-(5x-7)\\y=3x+5-5x+7\\y=-2x+12$

So the other expression in the sum is -2x + 12.

The value of c is equal to _____.

DENIUS [597]

For this case we have that by definition, the Pythagorean theorem states that:

$c = \sqrt {a ^ 2 + b ^ 2}$

Where:

a, b: Are the legs

c: It is the hypotenuse

According to the figure we have to:

$a = 20\\b = 21$

Substituting in the formula we have:

$c = \sqrt {(20) ^ 2 + (21) ^ 2}\\c = \sqrt {400 + 441}\\c = \sqrt {841}\\c = 29$
