Answer:

A leg

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is the longest leg of a triangle, and the hypotenuse is across the greatest angle, which is the 90 degree angle in this case. Thus, side "a" is a leg.

tanya purchased 4 hamners for $11.00 each and 7 scewdrivers for $6.65 each write an expresion for the total cost of the tools.th

rewona [7]

X=numbers of hammers
y=numbers of scewdrivers
f(x,y)= total cost in $

f(x,y)=11x+6.65y

f(4,7)=4(11)+6.65(7)=44+46.55=90.55

Sol: an expresion for the total cost of the tools is f(x,y)=11x+6.65 y;
x=number of hammers
y= number of scewdrivers.
The total cost is $90.55
