Answer:
17 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
The pythagorean theorm is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
In this problem we can call 8 km a and 15 km b.
Plug 8 and 15 into the pythagorean theorm to get 8^2 + 15^2 = c^2
This will give you 289=c^2
Take the square root of both sides to get c=17
Hope this helps!
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for c by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolate the variable
We know that it costs $68 for 16 square feet of flooring. To find out how much it costs for 12, we first have to find out how much it costs for 1 square foot.
To find that, we would do $68 divided by 16, which is 4.25.
That means 1 square foot costs $4.25.
Then, we would multiply $4.25 by 12 to find how much 12 square feet costs.
$4.25 times 12 is 51.
So, it would cost $51 to have 12 square feet of flooring.
