Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to Part A is 2 15/32
This is the Pythagorean theorem where the 2 legs of a triangle squared add up to equal the squared hypotenuse (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
The equation would be
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2
144 + 25 = 169
The square root of 169 = 13
Answer - 13 ft

Let's call the younger student's age A and the older student's age B. The teacher's age will be T.
B = 2A
T = 5B
T+5 = 5(A+5)
Simplify the last equation.
T+5 = 5A+25
T = 5A+20
Now we have two equations solved for T, so we can set them equal to each other.
5B = 5A + 20
We can plug 2A in for B
5(2A) = 5A + 20
10A = 5A + 20
5A = 20
A = 4
To find T, we plug 4 in for A in T = 5A + 20
T = 5(4) + 20
T = 40
The answer is 40 years old.
