Answer:
John = 41 years
Sam = 32 years
Step-by-step explanation:
If we know your Pythagorean Triples we can immediately recognize that the last choice is a right triangle:
8² + 15² = 17²
If you don't know your Pythagorean Triples, it's worth learning the first few off the list because teachers use them in problems all the time. But for now let's just exhaustively check the Pythagorean Theorem for each triangle. We don't have to multiply everything out; we can analyze the common factors. If two have a common factor that the third one doesn't have, there's no way for the Pythagorean Theorem to add up.
Clearly 5²+15² is a multiple of 5 but 18² isn't so that one isn't a right triangle.
6²+12² is a multiple of 6, 16² isn't a multiple of 6, not an RT.
15²-5² is a multiple of 5, 13² isn't, no joy.
8²+15² = 64 + 225 = 289 = 17² -- that's a real right triangle, a valid Pythagorean Triple.
Answer:
The variable 8. Equation is 16 + 12x = 112.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that she spent $16 dollars on magazines, so we can put it in the equation (16 + x= ?). We also know that the total is $112, so we can also add that (16+ x= 112). We don't know how many books she got, but we do know how much they cost (16 + 12x=112. So that makes the books the variable (X).
To find the variable we need to take out the magazines from the price. 112-16=96. Now we're left with 12x=96. Now all we have to do is divide 96 by 12, which equals 8.
