Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right use Pythagoras' identity to solve for x
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, that is
x² = 14² + 10² = 196 + 100 = 296
Take the square root of both sides
x =

Answer:
12 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the number of dimes is 16-q and the total value is ...
0.25q +0.10(16 -q) = 2.20
0.15q +1.60 = 2.20 . . . . . . . simplify
0.15q = 0.60 . . . . . . . . subtract 1.60
q = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15
16-q = 12
There are 12 dimes in the collection.
Your answer is B (3, -14)
Good Luck with your Test!!
