Answer:

14.1 I hope this helps! Brainliest please!

Step-by-step explanation:

So we use the Pythagorean theorem which is a squared + b squared = c squared. C is the hypotenuse. So we do:

15 squared - 5 sqaured = b squared

225 - 25 = b squared

200 = b squared

14.1 = b

Answer:

√200 or 14.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras' Theorem: a²+b²=c²

Rearrange to get b² (one of the smaller sides): c²-a²=b²

225-25=200

√200 = 14.1

Why you think individuals should receive a credit or deduction for this expense?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

A deduction can only lower your taxable income and the tax rate that is used to calculate your tax. This can result in a larger refund of your withholding. A credit reduces your tax giving you a larger refund of your withholding, but certain tax credits can give you a refund even if you have no withholding.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pierre found a new store where he hopes to save
fgiga [73]
Your first equation is 4x + 7y= 32, the x’s representing the brushes and the y’s the tubes of paint. Our second equation is 6x+8y=43. What I did is I multiplied the first equation by 1.5 so that it turns into 6x+10.5y=48. Then I subtracted the second equation from the first, canceling out the x’s and leaving us with 2.5y=5. Then divided and got y=2. We then go back to any of the original equations and plug it in to get the x’s.
6x+8(2)=43. We get 6x+16=43. We subtract and are left with 6x=27 and then x=4.5. Then plug both of them in to a different equation to double check. You could also use substitution by isolating one of the variables in one equation and then plugging it in to the other one.

Use Modus Ponens to deduce the conclusion from each of the following pairs of premises:
Nuetrik [128]

The conclusion is a=c statement

A modus ponens argument has the same structure as a syllogism, with two premises and a conclusion:

If P, then Q.

P occurs.

Consequently, Q occurs.

The Modus Ponens rule of inference or rule of logic requires a single premise and its logical consequences. A conditional statement states that if event 1 occurs, event 2 will also occur and that event 2 will be inferred as the outcome if event 1 occurs. For instance, if A implies B and A is assumed to be true, then it follows that B must also be true according to the Modus Ponens rule.

Hence, By modus Ponens

a=b∧b=c ⇒ a=c

So, given a=b∧b=c Then

⇒a=c.

Hence the conclusion is a=c statement .
