Answer:

24 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem

18² + x² = (x + 6)²

Expand

324 + x² = x² + 12x + 36

Subtract x² from both sides

324 = 12x + 36

Subtract 36 from both sides

288 = 12x

Divide both sides by 12

24 = x

24 meters

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The following mistakes could be explained observed from the plotted bar chart presented in the attachment :

1.) The numeric label of the y-axis which shows the number of text messages isn't well scaled, the numbering did not start from 0, hence this is a defect in the scaling of the bar chart.

2.) Looking closely, the plotted bars do not ALIGN well in terms of spacing as the interval between each bar isn't consistent.

3.) Both the x and y axis of the graph are t labeled thus failing to add a good and meaningful description to the plot especially for first time viewers.
