Mathematics

Answer:

10.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the diagonal length of the stairway we can use the pythagorean theorem or a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6'4" is also 6 1/3' or 19/3'

8'6" is also 8 1/2' or 17/2'

now square them both

361/9 + 289/4

make them have the same denominator

1444/36 + 2601/36

add them

4045/36

take the square root

10.6000524 is your answer

10.6 ft

Solve the problem by multiplying first. A clothing store is having a sale on shirts and jeans. Four shirts and two pairs of jean
ella [17]

We will solve this by suing simultaneous equations,

⇒ 5s + 3j = 87

    4s + 2j = 64

Multiply the first equation with 4 and the second one with 5, this is to get one of the values equal so that we can cancel them out,

⇒ (5s + 3j = 87) × 4

    (4s + 2j = 64) × 5

∴ ⇒ 20s + 12j = 348

       20s + 10j = 320

Subtract both the equations. This is how your result (after subtraction) should look like,

  ⇒ 2j = 28

∴ ⇒ j = $14

Now replace the value of 'j' in one of the original equations,

⇒ 4s + 2(14) = 64

⇒ 4s + 28 = 64

⇒ 4s = 64 - 28

⇒ 4s = 36

∴ ⇒ s = $9

Therefore, one pair of jeans cost $14 and a shirt costs $9

Hope you understood! Feel free to ask me if you didn't understand a step.

Help! (tell me if you can’t see it)
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

B. y=7x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the changes of y over the changes of x. y sub 2 - y sub 1 divided by x sub 2 over x sub 1. So, 17 - 10 over 2 - 1 = 7. 3 is the y-intercept. y=7x+3
