Answer:
A. h = 4
B. g = 15
C. b = -6
D. b = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 9h + 8 - 12 = -40
9h - 4 = -40
+ 4 + 4
9h = -36
h = -4
B. 9 + 6g + 1 = 100
10 + 6g = 100
- 10 - 10
6g = 90
g = 15
C. -45 = 28 - 13 + 10b
-45 = 15 + 10b
- 15 - 15
-60 = 10b
b = -6
D. 37 = 11 +3b - 19
37 = 3b - 8
+ 8 + 8
45 = 3b
15 = b
is the second or third Pythagorean triple on the list, which gives us the answer directly.
But if we didn't know that, let x be the short leg:
Rejecting the negative root, x=5, other side 12, the Pythagorean triple we found.
