Because this is a triangle and we know that we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse we just plug in the numbers. But because you have the hypotenuse already you will subtract the leg from the hypotenuse.

A^2+B^2=C^
16^2+B^2=20^2
256+B^2=400 subtract 256 from both sides
B^2=144 now take the square root of both sides
B=12

The second leg is 12 cm long. Your answer is B, the second answer.

What is the probability of pulling a jack or a heart out of a deck of 52 cards
ikadub [295]

Answer:

 =4/13

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 13 hearts in a deck

4 jacks

but 1 is the jack of hearts so we don't double count it

13+4-1 = 16

P( heart or a jack) = jack or heart/ total

                             = 16/52

                             =4/13

The cost of renting a pickup truck at Trucks Plus is $25 plus $15 cents per mile driven. The cost of renting a truck at Need-A-T
kodGreya [7K]
Okay so. Here's what it looks like :    TRUCK PLUS: $25 is the fee upfront. so no matter what your GOING to pay $25 for using the company. Next 15 cents for every mile driven. So if the truck were to drive 3 miles it would be $.45 cents

NEED-A-TRUCK : Same thing. You have to pay $25 no matter what. But for this company you have to pay $.10 per mile.  COST PER MILE means that basically the more miles you drive, the more cents you have to pay. Does that make sense? <span />
