Answer:
17 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
The pythagorean theorm is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
In this problem we can call 8 km a and 15 km b.
Plug 8 and 15 into the pythagorean theorm to get 8^2 + 15^2 = c^2
This will give you 289=c^2
Take the square root of both sides to get c=17
Hope this helps!
Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
he read first 74 and need to
= 74-30
=44
We can create a equation to find out.
since we are finding a number where when multiplied by 1.25(this is the decimal form of the percentage) gives us 25, we know that the number we are finding is less than 25. here is the equation.
1.25(x)=25
divide both sides by 1.25 to get "x" alone.
x= 20
