The answer is 72.8. in order to solve this problem, you need to use the pythagorean theorem. the equation is c^2-b^2=a^2.
75^2-18^2=a^2
75 squared minutes 18 squared is 5301. then you need to find the square root of 5301.
the square root of 5301 is 72.8079666, rounding to 72.8.
For this case we have the following equation:

We must solve the equation by following the steps below:
We subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:

On the right side of the equation we have that different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

We add x to both sides of the equation:

We divide between 4 on both sides of the equation:

Thus, the correct option is option B
Answer:

Option B
Let (15+x) and (22+x) be the future ages of the brothers
15+x+22+x= 408
Collect like terms
37+2x=408
Move 37 to the other side as a negative number
2x=371
Divide both sides by 2
371/2 is 185.5
So, after 185.5 years, their ages will add up to be 408
Answer:
Given,

But if we put the value of x = 5 then it doesn’t satisfy the equation.
So,
X = 1
