Find the length of each hypotenuse such that KMN = LMN

If triangle KMN is congruent with triangle LMN, then:
1) KM must be congruent with LM→KM=LM→
x+2y=3x-y→x+2y-x-2y=3x-y-x-2y→0=2x-3y→2x-3y=0   (1)

2) KN must be congruent with LN→KN=LN→
5x+3y=8x-7→5x+3y-5x-3y+7=8x-7-5x-3y+7→7=3x-3y→3x-3y=7  (1)

We have a system of two equations and two unkowns:
(1) 2x-3y=0
(2) 3x-3y=7

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2)
(3x-3y)-(2x-3y)=7-0
3x-3y-2x+3y=7
x=7

Replacing x=7 in equation (1)
(1) 2x-3y=0→2(7)-3y=0→14-3y=0→
14-3y+3y=0+3y→14=3y→14/3=3y/3→14/3=y→y=14/3

The length of the hypotenuse is:
KN=5x+3y=5(7)+3(14/3)=35+14→KN=49
or
LN=8x-7=8(7)-7=56-7→LN=49

Answer: Option C. 49

It's 9 4/5 miles from Justin's house to the art museum the distance to the history museum is 9/10 this far
Leno4ka [110]
The history museum is less that 9 4/5 miles. 9/10 means that the 9 3/4 mile is broken up into 10 equal parts and the distance to the museum is only 9 of those parts. 9 3/4 (9.8) divided by 10 equals 98/100 (.98) 
98/100 x 9 = 882/100 or 8.82 

Justin's house is 8.82 miles from the museum.
