Hello!
to find b, let's subtract the squares of the hypotenuse and leg a to find b. We will then find the square root of our answer.
169-144=25
√25=5
Therefore, b=5
I hope this helps!
196 + x = 500
Subtract 196 from both sides:
196 on the left is cancelled out, and you’re left with x = 304

Answer:
$18.28
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
Kate had a sum of money,she spent 1/8 of the money on a skirt and the remaining amount on a handbag
let the total money be x
so mathematically
x-1/8*x= 16
solve for x
x-x/8= 16
8x-x/8= 16
7x/8=16
cross multiply
7x= 8*16
7x=128
divide both sides by 7
x=128/7
x=$18.28
