Question: Simplify

.
First off, you <em>never</em> want square roots on the bottom of a fraction, so let's multiply both sides by

to get rid of it. All we have to do from there is simplify!
Pythagoras theorem:
hypotenuse²=leg₁²+leg₂²
Data:
leg₁=8
leg₂=15
hypotenuse=s
hypotenuse²=(8)²+(15)²
hypotenuse²=64+225
hypotenuse²=289
hypotenuse=√289
hypotenuse=17
Answer: s=17
Answer: 998400 square inches or 6933 1/3 square feet or
770.37 square yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 1280×780 for square inches. Divide that amount by 144 to get square feet. Then divide that by 9 to get square yards.
The two expressions are equivalent because they have the same value regardless of the number of substituted in for y
