Answer:
15.2
Step-by-step explanation:
logb(x) = y is equivalent to b^y =x
y = 2
b = 5
x = 25
Substitute the values to get 5^2 = 25
<h3>
Answer: C) x = 13</h3>
====================================================
Work Shown:
We have a right triangle with legs a = 5 and b = 12. The hypotenuse is c = x which is unknown for now.
Use the pythagorean theorem to find x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = x^2
25 + 144 = x^2
169 = x^2
x^2 = 169
x = sqrt(169) .... apply the square root to both sides
x = 13
