Answer:

$\frac{xy-xz}{y-z} = x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can simplify the fraction by factoring and canceling out common factors.

<h3>Simplify</h3>

$\frac{xy-xz}{y-z}$
$\frac{x(y - z)}{y-z}$
$\frac{x(\not y\not-\not z)}{\not y \not- \not z}$
$x$

We are left with x as the final simplified form.

Find the measure of angle a.

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

a = 127°

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 angles lie on a straight line and have a sum of 180°, that is

15° + a + 38° = 180°

53° + a = 180° ( subtract 53° from both sides )

a = 127°

A grid shows the positions of a subway stop and your house. The subway stop is located at (7, -6) and your house is located at (

Yuri [45]

So the distance between subway stop and house is 19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula will be used to calculate the distance between home and subway.

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of first point

and

(x2,y2) are the coordinates of second point

Given

(x1,y1) = (7, -6)

(x2,y2) = (-9,5)

Putting the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-9-7)^2+(5-(-6))^2} \\=\sqrt{(-16)^2+(5+6)^2} \\=\sqrt{256+(11)^2}\\=\sqrt{256+121}\\=\sqrt{377}\\=19.41\ units$

Rounding off to nearest unit gives us 19.

So the distance between subway stop and house is 19 units
