Answer:
r = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
PR² = PQ² + QR² , substitute values
(r + 4)² = r² + 8²
r² + 8r + 16 = r² + 64 ( subtract r² from both sides )
8r + 16 = 64 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
8r = 48 ( divide both sides by 8 )
$6.65
60 total fourth graders and 43 are girls. To find the number of boys, subtract.
60 - 43 = 17 boys
If 5 girls were absent, subtract.
43 - 5 = 38 girls present
If 4 boys were absent, subtract.
17 - 4 = 13 boys present
Therefore, there were 13 boys present.
Best of Luck!
