I think the answer would be 0.025, because (5/8) - (3/5) = 0.025.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller integer be n.
Then the larger integer is n + 2.
"When the smaller integer is added to three times the larger integer, the result is two less than five times the smaller integer."
The correct equation is:
n + 3(n + 2) = 5n - 2
His mistake is not using parentheses on the left side. Since he left out the parentheses, the left side is not "the smaller integer added to three times the larger integer", but rather it is "the smaller integer added to 2 plus 3 times the smaller integer."
n + 3(n + 2) = 5n - 2
n + 3n + 6 = 5n - 2
4n + 6 = 5n - 2
8 = n
n = 8
n + 2 = 10
The integers are 8 and 10.
Given that the triangle is a right angled triangle, to solve for x we shall use the Pythagorean theorem given by:
c^2=a^2+b^2
where:
c is the hypotenuse
a and b are the legs.
c=10
a=6
b=(x-6)
thus plugging the values in the equation and solving for x we get:
10^2=6^2+(x-6)^2
100=36+x^2-12x+36
100=x^2-12x+72
0=x^2-12x-28
factoring the above we get:
0=(x+2)(x-14)
hence
x=-2 or x=14
given that there is no negative distance then
x=14
thus the value of x is 14
