Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf \sqrt {274} \ or \ 16.55 \ inches}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a right triangle can be found using Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are legs and <em>c </em> is the hypotenuse.

In this triangle, the legs are 15 and 7, so we can substitute those values in for a and b.

(15)^2+(7)^2=c^2

Solve the exponents.

  • 15²=15*15=225
  • 7²=7*7=49

225+49=c^2

Add.

274=c^2

Since we are solving c, we have to isolate the variable. It is being squared and the inverse of a square is a square root. Take the square root of both sides.

\sqrt {274}=\sqrt {c^2}

\sqrt {274}=c \\ $$16.5529453572= c

Let's round to the nearest hundredth. The 2 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 5.

16.55 \approx c

The hypotenuse is approximately <u>√274 or 16.55 inches </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

a full circle has 360°.

so, since each individual result is represented by an amount of degrees, the total sum of all results must be 360°.

labour = 360 - 136 - 34 - 54 - 14 = 122°

the fraction 122/360 represents the 183 votes for labour.

122/360 = 183

the fraction 1/1 = 1 then represents the total number of votes in the whole system.

61/180 = 183

1/180 = 3

1 = 3×180 = 540

540 pupils voted altogether.
