Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean theory baby! Okay so the Pythagorean theory is a² + b² = c² so lets draw a triangle and label our sides. So we know 8² + 15² = c² so I'm going to find the square root of all of our numbers. We get 64 + 225 = c² so then add 64 + 225 = 289 then I take the square root of 289 which equals 17 . This answer also makes sense because out hypotenuse should always be bigger then the legs.
I'm pretty sure thats right, Hope this helps.
well, first off, we do a quick prime factoring of the leading term's coefficient, 35, and the constant, 16.
35 = 5*7
16 = 2*2*2*2
and the rest is just a mix and match.
what combination from the factors of 35 and the factors of 16, can provide a product whose sum is the middle term 26? well, without further adieu.
we can try 5*2*2 + 7*2*2, and that's 20 and 28, ok, 28 - 20 is 8, so that won't work.
another can be 5*2*7 and 2*2, that's 70 and 4, 70 - 4 is 56, that won't work either.
5*2*2*2 and 7*2, that's 40 and 14, hmmm 40 - 14 = 26!!! holly guacamole!
so then,
