Subtract 15 from both sides.
28-15=13
X=13
For this problem, you would use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
A and B are the length and width of the triangle. The triangle is created by the diagonal line splitting the computer screen. C is the hypotenuse, which is the diagonal line, and will always be the longest side of the triangle.
When we plug in the numbers into the formula, we would get this:
13^2 + b^2 = 15^2
B is the unknown variable in which we are trying to find.
First, you square 13 and 15:
169 + b^2 = 225
Then, subtract 169 from both sides:
b^2 = 56
Finally, find the square root of both sides:
b = 7.483314774
Simplify to the nearest tenth, and the answer is 7.5<span />
Answer: Box A, 2.777
=======================================================
Explanation:
When using a calculator or long division, you should find that
7/9 = 0.7777...
where the 7s go on forever
So we can say that 7/9 = 0.777 approximately. You could argue that the last '7' would round up to an '8' and we could say 7/9 = 0.778; however, I'll stick to the first value so that it matches with the answer.
Since 7/9 = 0.777, this means 2 & 7/9 = 2 + 7/9 = 2 + 0.777 = 2.777 which is box A.
Product is the result of multiplying the numbers, so the <span>product of 8/15, 6/5,1/3 means that we have to multiply the three numbers, like this:
let's make them into one fraction:
