Answer:b=5
Step-by-step explanation:the formular for pythagoras theory is
C^2=a^2+b^2
13^2=12^2+b^2
169=144+b^2
Collect like terms
169-144=b^2
b^2=25
Take the the square root of both sides
b=square root of 25
b=5
14+m=56
m=56-14(minus 56 from both side)
M=42
A = -599 if I read the question correctly
22.7%
Given that last year stock for company A was $7200
The stock for company B last year was worth $3510
Stock in company A decreased by 24%
This means the new value of stock for company A became;
(100-24)/100 *$7200
76/100*$7200
0.76*7200 =$5472
Stock in company B decreased by 20%
This means the new value of stock for company B became;
(100-20)/100 *$3510
80/100*$3510
0.8*$3510
$2808
Original investors stock value was = $7200+$3510 =$10710
New investors stock value is = $5472+$2808=$8280
Decrease in value of stock = $10710-$8280 =$2430
percentage decrease in stock value = decrease in stock/original value of stock *100%
=2430/10710 *100 =22.689
=22.7%
