Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-64 + -4 = -68
That is because 64 + 4 = 68 and the negatives in this case are the same way as if it was all positive.
X = 28
1/4+17=x-4
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4
X+68=4z-16
Move variable to the left hand side and change its sign
X-4x+68=-16
X-4x=-16-68
Combine like terms
-3x=-16-68
-3x=-84
Divide both sides by -3
X=28
Answer:
13.9 or 14
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 13^2 = c^2
25 + 169 = 197
square root 197 to get c
c = 13.9 (14 rounded up)
Helpful thing to note is that the hyptoenuse will always be longer than your "long side" of the triangle
