Answer:

24 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

7² + x² = 25² → I'll use "x" to represent the unknown leg.

49 + x² = 625

x² = 576

x= ± 24 → Eliminate the -24 answer choice; a side length cannot be negative.

The other leg is 24 ft.

~hope this helps~

Answer:

18.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem = a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a, b = legs

c = hypotenuse

17^2 + b^2 = 25^2

b = 18.3

Find the solution set of this inequality. Select
hram777 [196]

Answer:

"first number line shown in the diagram"

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we have inequality of the form

| x + a | > b

we can write

1.  x+a > b, and

2. -(x+a) > b

and solve both.

So we can write

1. 8x + 16 > 16

2. -(8x+16) > 16

<u>Solving 1:</u>

8x > 16 - 16

8x > 0

x > 0

<u>Solving 2:</u>

-(8x+16) > 16

-8x - 16 > 16

-16 -16 > 8x

-32 > 8x

-32/8 > x

-4 > x

Putting these together, we can say x is greater than 0 & x is less than -4

The first number line is right.
