Answer:
28 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of students in cooking club = x
Number of students in fencing club = 1/5 x
Number of students in chess club = 2(1/5)x
Since, There are 42 more students in the cooking club than in the chess club
Then ;
Number of students in chess club = Number of students in cooking club - 42
2(1/5)x = x - 42
(2/5)x - x = - 42
(2/5)x - x = - 42
-0.6x = - 42
x = 42 / 0.6
x = 70
Hence, number of students in chess club :
(2/5) * 70 = 28
A. +27
B. +4
C.+21
A. -16
B. 23
C. 3
D. -70
E. -20
That’s how you solve complex numbers.
The two pairs are Pythagorean triples because if you plug the two legs of a right triangle into the Pythagorean theorem(A^2+B^2=C^2), then you will find the measurement for the third side(hypotenuse). i.e. 15^2+12^2=9^2(it's the Pythagorean triple 3,4,5 multiplied by 3). This works with any triple, as long as your using the legs of the triangle and as long as the triangle is a right triangle.
The answer is probably (c).
