Solve for x. Help Help Help Help Help, I tried dividing 17/2 which gave me 8.5 but it’s wrong

x = 15.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

6^2 + x^2 = 17^2

36+ x^2 = 289

x^2 = 289-36

x^2 =253

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt( 253)

x = 15.90597

Rounding to the nearest tenth

x = 15.9

$30.32

step-by-step explanation:

65.00*.12=2.80

65.00-2.80=57.20

57.20*1.06=60.632

60.632/2=30.316
