Answer:
a =2.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
a^2+2^2 = 3^2
a^2 +4 = 9
a^2 = 9-4
a^2 = 5
Taking the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(5)
a = sqrt(5)
a=2.236067977
To the nearest tenth
a =2.2
P=12/3
Explanation: P is the variable and to find how many we can buy with 12 dollars we divide 12 by 3 which is the price.
Answer:
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
We must solve the quadratic equation to find the values of x that satisfy equality

Subtract 24 on both sides of equality


Now we factor the quadratic equation
Identify two numbers that when you add them you get as a result 2 and when you multiply them you get as a result -24
The numbers sought are: 6 and -4
So the factors are:

Finally note that the solutions are:
and
