In the late 1897, amos dolbear published an article called "the cricket as a thermometer." he had determined that the temperature (in fahrenheit) outside shared a linear relationship with the number of times the snowy tree cricket would chirp per minute. if you count the number of cricket chirps per minute (while sitting inside your warm house), then you can find the temperature outside.

x is variable or an unknown value to find

example:

2x = 5 which means x = 3

thats not a system of equations, that is a solution

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus
