Answer:
44 units length
Step-by-step explanation:
The side splitter theorem states that if a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and the line intersects the other two sides, then this line divides those two sides proportionally. Therefore:
20/10 = x/22
20/10*22 = x
44 = x
A. each mug will be 1/9 because 4/9 divide by 4 is 1/9
b 3/9 or 1/3 because 1/9 times 3 is 3/9

1. So, since Manuel bought 9 pounds and ate 3/4 of 1 pound, he has 8.25 pounds left (9 - 0.75 = 8.25)
2. Let us call "x" the cost of 1 pound of apples
3. (8.25) * (x) = $15
4. x = $1.81818 rounded to the nearest dollar is $2 / pound
Take the augmented matrix,
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}2&1&-3&-20\\1&2&1&-3\\1&-1&5&19\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D2%261%26-3%26-20%5C%5C1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C1%26-1%265%2619%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Swap the row 1 and row 2:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\2&1&-3&-20\\1&-1&5&19\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C2%261%26-3%26-20%5C%5C1%26-1%265%2619%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add -2(row 1) to row 2, and -1(row 1) to row 3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&-3&4&22\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%26-5%26-14%5C%5C0%26-3%264%2622%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add -1(row 2) to row 3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&0&9&36\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%26-5%26-14%5C%5C0%260%269%2636%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Multiply through row 3 by 1/9:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%26-5%26-14%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add 5(row 3) to row 2:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&0&6\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%260%266%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Multiply through row 2 by -1/3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%261%260%26-2%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add -2(row 2) and -1(row 3) to row 1:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&-3\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%260%260%26-3%5C%5C0%261%260%26-2%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
So we have
