Answer:
29 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If he earned $404.70 per 19 hours, you do 404.70/19 to figure out the amount he earns per hour. 404.7/19 is 21.3. He earns $21.3 per hour. to solve, you find how many times 21.3 goes into 617.7 or 617.7/21.3. That is 29. He needs to work 29 hours to earn $617.70
Multiply the first equation by 2
4x-6y=16
Then add the equations to eliminate x
4x-6y=16
-4x+5y=-10
-y=6
y-=6
Plug the y value in
2x-3(-6)=8
2x+18=8
2x=-10
x=-5
Final answer: (-5,-6)
B because the distance between p to b is 1/4 of the line and the distance between p to a is 3/4 of the line

Answer:
15.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right triangle with hypotenuse 16 ft and one side length of 4 ft. If x represents the height of the ladder on the building, then the Pythagorean theorem tells us ...
x^2 + (4 ft)^2 = (16 ft)^2
x^2 = 240 ft^2 . . . . . . subtract 16 ft^2
x ≈ 15.5 ft . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
The top of the ladder is about 15.5 ft above the ground.
