The u. s. government collects information on americans who do not have health insurance. here is the data, sorted by geographic region:
region uninsured insured row totals
northeast 6,782 47,043 53,825
midwest 7,757 57,135 64,892
south 19,090 85,800 104,890
west 11,676 55,427 67,103
column totals 45,305 245,405 290,710
the percentage of people from the west that are insured is:

Do 55,427 divided by 67,103 which is 0.825998838 then multiply that by 100 to get 82.5998838 then round up to the nearest tenth to get 83 percent

something that characterises a right triangle is the fact that we may use pythagoras' theorem to find any one of its sides given that we have the length of the other two sides. here, we have the length of the hypotenuse, √(87) yd, and one other side, √(23) yd, thus we can easily find the length of the remaining side using pythagoras' theorem as defined below:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.

thus, given that c = √(87) and a = √(23), we may substitute these into the formula we defined above to get:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

(√87)^2 = (√23)^2 + b^2 (substitute c = √87 and a = √23 into the equation)

87 = 23 + b^2 (evaluate (√87)^2 = 87 and (√23)^2 = 23 - remember that the square root of a number, squared will equal that very same number)

64 = b^2 (subtract 23 from both sides)

√64 = b (take the square root of both sides)

8 = b (evaluate √64 = 8)

therefor, the length of the unknown leg in the right triangle is 8 yd (first answer).
