Step-by-step explanation:
pythagorean theorem
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
sub in

simplify
A^2 + 49 = 81
solve
A^2 = 32
solve further
A =
use calculator and get:
5.65685
round and get:
<u>5.7</u>
The answer would be 15.7142857143
You can get the answer by calculating (5/7) × 22
12.75
PROOF:
find all the m's first
3m+3m+m+m=8m
8m=102
Divide both sides, and you get
