Answer:

<h2>19.596 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 20ft

c = 28ft

400 + b^2 = 784

b^2 = 384

b = 19.596

A total of 504 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. There were 54 more stud
kirza4 [7]
A + s = 504
s = a + 54

a + (a + 54) = 504
2a + 54 = 504
2a = 504 - 54
2a = 450
a = 450/2
a = 225 <=== adults

a + s = 504
225 + s = 504
s = 504 - 225
s = 279 <=== students

What is the answer to 4x-12=-5x+51
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: You just have to isolate x on one side of the equation

4x - 12 = -5x + 51                  Add 12 to both sides to isolate 4x on the left

4x = -5x + 63                        Add -5x to both sides to isolate both the variable and numbers on their respective sides

9x = 63                                 Now divide each side by 9 to isolate x and find the answer

x = 7
