The architect earns $47000 yearly and the lawyer earns $68,000 yearly.

<h3>How to solve algebra problems?</h3>

Let x = salary of architect, in thousands

Let 2x - 26 be the salary of lawyer, in thousands

Thus, if their salary combined is $214 thousand, then we have the algebra expression;

2x + 2x - 26 = 214

4x - 26 = 214

4x = 214 - 26

4x = 188

x = 47, in thousands.

The architect earns $47000 yearly

The lawyer earns 2(47000) - 26000 = $68,000 yearly

<u>Answer:</u>

  • The length of the hypotenuse is 33 yards.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<em>We can solve for 'a' using Pythagoras theorem. Let's solve it.</em>

  • 65² = b² + 56²
  • => 4225 = b² + 3136
  • => b² = 1089
