Hi there!
First we need to remember the following.

Now substitute both of the formulas.

Work out the parenthesis.

And finally collect terms.

The ratio is called the Opposite leg or also known as Hypotenuse. Usually, in a right angle, the size of the one angle is 90 degrees while the other which is less than 90 degrees is called the hypotenuse. It is the opposite side of the angle measured 90 degrees
Answer: 8.75
Step-by-step explanation:
12.50 x 30% or .03
= 3.75
3.75 - 12.50
= 8.75
Rearrange the equation to standard form of a quadratic equation (ax^2+bx+c=0) by switching sides: 5x^2+2x-12=0. Now, use the quadratic equation formula to solve. You should come out with x_1=sqrt61-1/5 and x_2=-1+sqrt61/5. Thus, your answer is B, or two solutions.
