Answer:

12.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Pythagorean Theorem is 'a' squared + 'b' squared = 'c' squared. So let's call the base of this triangle, which is 3, 'a' and the length, which is the hypotenuses, 'c'. Now we need to plug it in. So, we square 3 and square 13. It's now (9+b=169). Solve the equation and you get b^2=160. So now we solve for the square root. And the answer is 12.6491106407 which you can round to 12.65

|j|=|2j+3| please help me
Softa [21]
Simplifying
j = (2j + 3)

Reorder the terms:
j = (3 + 2j)

Remove parenthesis around (3 + 2j)
j = 3 + 2j

Solving
j = 3 + 2j

Solving for variable 'j'.

Move all terms containing j to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2j' to each side of the equation.
j + -2j = 3 + 2j + -2j

Combine like terms: j + -2j = -1j
-1j = 3 + 2j + -2j

Combine like terms: 2j + -2j = 0
-1j = 3 + 0
-1j = 3

Divide each side by '-1'.
j = -3

Simplifying
j = -3
