A sign in the shape of a right triangle has one leg that is 28(inches) longer than the other leg. What is the length of the shorter leg of the perimeter is 120 inches ?

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a sign in the shape of a right triangle has one leg that is 28(inches) longer than the other leg.

the perimeter is 120 inches

Let the shorter leg have length x inches  Then the other leg has length as x+28 inches

The hypotenuse = 120- length of two legs together

=

Since right angled triangle Pythagorean theorem is satisfied

i.e.

We get x as negative or 228.744

this is not possible as perimeter is 120 inches only

Hence no solution

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

47.28 or 47.2857143

step-by-step explanation:

you just divide 331 by 7 and you get that answer. ( i think so tho)
