<h3>Answer:  Approximately 23.0 cm</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

a = 20.3

b = unknown

c = 30.7

Apply the pythagorean theorem to find b

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(20.3)^2 + b^2 = (30.7)^2

412.09 + b^2 = 942.49

b^2 = 942.49-412.09

b^2 = 530.4

b = sqrt(530.4)

b = 23.0304146727757  value is approximate

b = 23.0

I rounded to one decimal place because the other values (20.3 and 30.7) were to one decimal place.

What’s the difference between evaluating an expression for a given value of a variable and solving an equation?
Talja [164]
The difference is that evaluating an expression for a given value is an example of let’s say In a example, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12. So it means that they are giving you the input already. SOLVING an equation is working backwards, to undo everything that has been done to the input. So you have to do the equation in order to find your answer.

Someone want to help me with some Geometry?
Aleks04 [339]
The second answer that uses = is not correct, because the pentagons are similar not congruent.
The third answer is not correct, because that sign means estimated, not similar.
I've never seen the fourth sign, so by process of elimination I believe the answer is the first one.

Need help anything helps thanks
yKpoI14uk [10]

A binomial squared is written like

x^2+2ax+a^2

So, we have 2a=6 \iff a=3

So, we want to complete the square (x+3)^2 = x^2+6x+9

We can add and subtract 9 to write

x^2+6x = x^2+6x+(9-9) = (x^2+6x+9)-9 = (x+3)^2-9

crystal is picking blueberries.so far,she has filled 2/3 of her basket,and the blueberries weigh 3/4pound .the equation 2/3w=3/4
vesna_86 [32]
In order to do this, we multiply both sides be the amount that would make the left side equal to 1.  This number is the reciprocal of the fraction, so we multiply both sides by 3/2.  This is equal to:

w = 9/8

So, the blueberries in crystal's basket will weigh 9/8 pounds when it is full.
