Answer:

a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation:

8^2+b^2=24^2

Korolek [52]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

A dog buried 18 bones

On Monday he dug up 1/2 of the bones

On Tuesday he dug up 1/3 of the bones

= 1/2 × 18

= 9

= 1/3×18

= 6

Therefore the remaining bones still buried in the ground can be calculated as follows

= 9+6

= 15

= 18-15

= 3

Hence 3 bones are still buried in the ground
