Answer: 35 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
hypotenuse = 5*y in
cathetus 1 = (x + 8) in
cathetus 2 = (x + 3) in
The perimeter of the triangle is 76 inches, then:
5*y + (x + 8) + (x + 3) = 76
5*y + 2*x + 13 = 76
We also know that the length of the hypotenuse minus the length of the shorter leg is 17 in.
The shorter leg is x + 3, then:
5*y - (x + 3) = 17
Then we have the equations:
5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76
5*y - (x + 3) = 17
With only these two we can solve the system, first we need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, i will isolate x in the second equation.
x = 5*y - 3 - 17 = 5*y - 20
x = 5*y - 20
Now we can replace this in the other equation, we get:
5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76
5*y + 2*(5*y - 20) + 11 = 76
15*y - 40 + 13 = 76
15*y - 29 = 76
15*y = 76 + 29 = 105
and remember that the hypotenuse is equal to 5*y, then we want to get:
3*(5*y) = 105
5*y = 105/3 = 35
5*y = 35
Then te length of the hypotenuse is 35 inches.
A. 36 as the numbers are adding by the next odd integer. An example is: 1–>4 is +3, 4–>9 is +5, 9–>16 is +7, and so on. This rule applies to both of our sequences.
b. 38.
Hope this helps :) brainly if possible so others can see.
Solving by substitution:
y = 4x - 3
2x + 7y = 41
Let us substitute the first equation y = 4x - 3 into the second.
2x + 7y = 41
2x + 7(y = 4x -3) = 41
2x + 7(4x -3) = 41
So that's the third option.
I hope this helps.

Answer:
the roots are {-4/3, 4/3}
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin the solution of 11=6|-2z| -5 by adding 5 to both sides:
11=6|-2z| -5 becomes 16 = 6|-2z|.
Dividing both sides by 12 yields
16/12 = |-z|
There are two cases here: first, that one in which z is positive and second the one in which z is negative.
If z is positive, 4/3 = -z, and so z = -4/3, and:
If z is negative, 4/3 = z
Thus the roots are {-4/3, 4/3}
