1.) 3.5% * 500 = 17.5
2.) 70.0% * 50 = 35.0
3.) 25.0% * 440 = 110.0
4.) 10.0% * 46 = 4.6
For the answer to the question above asking to s<span>olve 1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24) with and without using the LCD of the fraction.
The problem is simple.
just multiply 1/2 to 4x + 6 which will result to 2x+3
same method on the 1/3 to 9x - 24 and it will result to 3x-8
2x+3 = 3x - 8
3x-2x = 8+3
then the answer will be x= 11</span>

Answer:
c = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem.
The equation is a² + b² = c².
"a" and "b" are the length of the two shorter sides or values.
"c" is the length of the longest side or value, also the hypotenuse.
Since we know the two smaller values, we can <u>replace "a" and "b" with 8 and 15</u>. It does not matter which letter you decide to replace with which number.
Then<u> simplify and isolate "c" </u>to find the largest value.
a² + b² = c²
8² + 15² = c² Substitute "a" and "b". Square the numbers to simplify
64 + 225 = c² Add to simplify
289 = c²
√289 = √c² Square root both sides
√289 = c "c" will be isolated because √ and ² are reverse operations
c = √289 Put 'c' on the left side for standard formatting.
c = 17 Answer
Therefore the largest value, c, is 17 in the triple.
