Answer:

y = 4\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

y² = 8² + 4² = 64 + 16 = 80 ( take the square root of both sides )

y = \sqrt{80} = \sqrt{16(5)} = 4\sqrt{5} ← exact value

Alenkasestr [34]
Ron should receive $7.98. Jerry and Steve each worked for 4 hours, while Ron was one hour late, so he worked for 3 hours. Together, they worked for 4*2+3=11 hours, receiving $29.25 in total. Each hour should be paid 29.25/11=2.66 dollars. Ron worked for three hours, so he should receive 3*2.66=7.98 dollars.

5.27-3.40=0.85x

next:

1.87=0.85x

x= 2.2
