The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 157 units. The length of one leg of the triangle is 132. Lara wrote the following step to find the length of the unknown leg: Length of the unknown leg = 1572 − 1322 = 24,649 − 17,424 = 7,225 units

Which statement best explains whether Lara's step is correct or incorrect?

It is correct because the length of the unknown side is the difference of the lengths of the sides.
It is correct because the length of the unknown side is the difference of the squares of the sides.
It is incorrect because the length of the unknown side is the square root of 42,073.
It is incorrect because the length of the unknown side is the square root of 7,225

High school seniors with strong academic records apply to the nation’s most selective colleges in greater numbers each year. because the number of slots remains relatively stable, some colleges reject more early applicants. suppose that for a recent admissions class, an ivy league college received 2851 applications for early admission. of this group, it admitted 1033 students early, rejected 854 outright, and deferred 964 to the regular admission pool for further consideration. in the past, this school has admitted 18% of the deferred early admission applicants during the regular admission process. counting the students admitted early and the students admitted during the regular admission process, the total class size was 2375. let e, r, and d represent the events that a student who applies for early admission is admitted early, rejected outright, or deferred to the regular admissions pool.suppose a student applies for early admission. what is the probability that the student will be admitted for early admission or be deferred and later admitted during the regular admission process?
