Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 6
c = 9
b = ?
6^2 + b^2 = 9^2
36 + b^2 = 81
b^2 = 81 - 36
b^2 = 45
b = sqrt(45)
b = 6.71 miles
Answer:
15 times 2 - 26 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Warren drives half the distance Kendall drives to work. Kendall drives 26 more miles to work than Joe. Warren drives 15 miles. Write an equation that models this situation. Use x to represent the number of miles Joe drives to work.
W X 1/2 = K
K - 26 = J
so 15 times 2 - 26 = x
Answer:
P = 28 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a square is
A = s^2 where s is the side length
49 = s^2
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(49) = sqrt(s^2)
7 =s
Now find the perimeter of the square
P = 4s
P = 4(7)
P = 28 cm
hence, the common ratio of the given G.P. is 3 or −3.
Create equations using the given information
1) x+y=56
2) y=x-16
Substitute the value of y into the 1st equation and simplify
1)x+x-16=56
2x=72
x=36
Substitute the value of x into the 1st equation and simplify
1)x+y=56
36+y=56
y=20
Answer: 20 and 36
