You can solve using the pythagorean theorem which is

a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

12^2+x^2=24^2
144+x^2=576
x^2=432
x =20.78 (approximately)

The best answer is a, 20.78 units. You can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this: a^2+b^2=c^2. Just plug in the variables and solve it as a multi step equation. The legs of the right triangle are a and b, which in this case you would plug in those variables with x and 12. The hypotenuse is c, which in this case is 24. That will leave you with 12^2+b^2=24^2. Simplify those exponents and continue solving for b. At the last part of your equation solving, you’ll be left with b^2= a number. To find the value of b just find the s quake root of that number and there’s your answer.

Speed was increased 20% to 48 mph. What was the speed before the increase
grigory [225]

Answer:

40 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

If the speed increased by 20%, now the speed is 120% of the original speed.

48 mph is 120%, so dividing by 6 will get 8 which is 20%.

If 8 is 20%, you can multiply it by 5 to get 40, which is 100%. This means 40 mph is the original speed.

Hope this helps!
