There are 70 people attending a high school baseball game. The difference between the number of women and men at the game is 18.

Let x represent the number of women. Let y represent the number of men.
This system of equations represents this situation:

x+y=70

x−y=18

How many women and men are at the game?

Adding the systems of equations together, we get
2x=88
Dividing both sides by 2, we get x, or the number of women, to be 44.
Plugging that into either equation, we get
44-y=18. Adding y to both sides and subtracting 18, we get y, or the number of men, to be 26.

A right triangle has an area of 18 square inches.If the triangle is an isosceles triangle, what are the lengths of the legs of t
Gnom [1K]
If it is isosceles, than the legs are the same. We will call them X. The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 (base * height). But the base and the height are both X. So the area (18) is equal to 1/2 (x * x), or 1/2(x^2). This means that 36 = x^2. Thus, the length of each side is 6 inches. You can check this work by plugging those into the formula for area. You will find that it equals 18.
