Nick wants to build a banister for the staircase in his home. The height of the staircase is 8 feet, and the horizontal distance from the bottom to the top of the staircase is 15 feet. What is the length of the banister? Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean Theorem

c^2=a^2+b^2 ( where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the legs of a right triangle)

c^2=15^2+8^2

c^2=225+64

c^2=289

c=17 feet

step-by-step explanation:

$450.00 for 6 weeks

or

$300

step-by-step explanation:

$200.00 for first week $50.00 x5 equals $250 plus $200 equals $450.00 for six weeks.

$200 for first week

$200 x 0.10 = $20

$20 x 5 = $100

$200 + $100 = $300
