using pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(12x)^2 + (16x)^2 = 10^2
square each term
144x^2 + 256x^2 = 100
combine like terms
400 x^2 = 100
divide by 400 on each side
x^2 = 1/4
take the square root on each side
x = 1/2
Answer: x=1/2
Answer:

<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Required
Graph the relationship between both parameters
First, calculate the area;


This implies that: (2, 120) i.e. 2 cans for 120ft^2.
So we have:
(0,0) and (2,120)
(0,0) implies that: 0 cans for 0 square feet
Calculate the slope:




The equation is:

So, we have:

I only know #1 which is 0.85
33 +4x = 513
4x = 480 (x = 480/4: x = 120)
Answer
Step 2 Divide each side by 4
