22.9 is the closest but not exact. It was probably rounded off.
I used the formula: leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2
(You can use that formula for any right triangle.)
Answer:
r = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
these angles are vertical and are congruent
8r + 6 = 9r - 7
6 = r - 7
13 = r
Distribute.
(a + 8)(a -3)
FOIL:
First, Outside, Inside, and Last
a * a = a^2
a * 3 = 3a
8 * a = 8a
8 * -3 = - 24
a^2 + 11a - 24
Distributed Expression: a^2 + 11a - 24

Sum accumulated is 

Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!
