Answer:
y = 89 x = 123
Step-by-step explanation:
since they're both in standard form, its easier to do the process of elimination
x - y = 34
-x -y -212
------------------
-2y = -178
y = 89
now plug in y to any one of those two equations
x - y = 34
x - 89 = 34
x = 123
<em>to check:</em>
<em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>
<em>1</em><em>2</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>
<em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>
Answer:
8 ft, 15 ft, 17 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x feet be the length of the side along the building. If the hypotenuse is 9 feet longer than the side along the building, then the length of the hypotenuse is x+9 feet. If the third side is 7 feet longer than the side along the building, then the length of the third side is x+7 feet.
This triangle is right triangle. By the Pythagorean theorem,
The length of the side cannot be negative, thus x=8 ft. Then x+7=15 ft, x+9=17 ft.
Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
30+30=60
40+40=80
60+80=140
Answer:
87.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 376 students in 8th grade at Samuel's school. There are 47 8th graders trying out for football last Thursday.
The number is students not trying out for football last Thursday is calculated as:
376 students - 47 students
= 329 students
The percent of 8th graders that did not try out for football is calculated as:
329 students/376 students × 100
= 329/376 × 100
= 87.5 %
