Answer:

  13

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. If we call that side 'c', then the theorem tells us ...

  c² = 5² + 12²

  c² = 25 +144 = 169

  c = √169 = 13

The length of the third side is 13 units.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The numbers (5, 12, 13) are what is called a "Pythagorean triple." That is, they are integers that can be used to form a right triangle. Others often seen in algebra problems are the (3, 4, 5), (7, 24, 25), and (8, 15, 17) triples. It can be worth your trouble to remember these. Then when you see side lengths of 5 and 12, you don't need to do any math to know the third side is 13.

Answer:

if youre answer has to be a whole number it would be 3 otherwise it would be  x<4 ( so anything less than 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

so because we are trying to find which company is less, we need to set up in inequality.

so first lets do company A

because 15 is our reoccuring fee, its going to be the coeifficient

so the equation would be

A - 15x + 20

now lets do company B

because it only 20 every month we dont need to have a constant which means the equation for B would be

B - 20x

so lets put it all together

15x + 20 > 20x ( remember our B side has to be less )

now lets solve it

20 > 5x

we know that if x = 4 then the two would be equal, which means our answer would have to be 3 months.

now always check your work.

15 (3) + 20 = 65

20(3) = 60
