Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 for right triangles where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

In the image, b and 12 are legs and 13 is the hypotenuse, so b^2 + 12^2 = 13^2 -> b^2 = 13^2 - 12^2 = 169 - 144 = 25 -> b = 5

I hope this helps! :)

Arthur weighs 34 lb more than Lily. Their combined weight is 180 lbs less than four times Lily's weight. How much does Arthur we
mote1985 [20]
X = Lilys weight
x + 34 = Arthurs weight
4x - 180 = combined weight

x + x + 34 = 4x = 180
2x + 34 = 4x - 180
-2x           -2x
_________________
        34 = 2x -180
     +180        + 180
_______________
       214 = 2x
        107  = x  which is Lily's weight
         141 = x + 34 which is Arthur's weight
The total weight is 248

which is the answer that you get when you do 4(107) = 180 or
428 -180 = 248

HELP PLEASE HELP MEEEE PLEASEEE
salantis [7]

Answer: a. x=4 b. x=17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 5x/2+1=11

subtract 1 from both sides : 5x/2=10

multiply both sides by 2 : 5x=20

divide both sides by 4 : x=4

b. 2x/7-3=2

add 3 to both sides : 2x/7=5

multiply both sides by 7 : 2x=35

divide both sides by 2 : x=17.5
