Use Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
C = hypothenuse
8^2 + b^2 = 15^2
64 + b^2 = 225
b^2 = 161
b = square root 161 = 12.68

Solution: 12.7 cm

Lin took 75 boxes of carrots and 80 boxes of potatoes to the market. She sold 68 boxes of carrots and 71 boxes of potatoes. How
enot [183]

For this case we have:

x: Represents the number of carrot boxes

y: Represents the number of boxes of potatoes

Initially we have:

x = 75\\y = 80

If you sold 68 boxes of carrot we have:

x = 75-68 = 7

If you sold 71 boxes of potatoes, we have:

y = 80-71 = 9

The number of boxes I take home is given by:x + y = 7 + 9 = 16

ANswer:

7 boxes of carrots left

There are 9 boxes of potatoes left

A total of 16 boxes remain
