Sketch the two quadrilaterals and label them as shown in the figure below.

Let x =  length of the 4th side of ABCD.

Because ABCD ~ EFGH, therefore
x/5 = 14/6

That is,
x = (5/6)*14 = 11.67 ft

Answer: D. 11.7 ft

Which statement describes the graph of the system of equations?
qwelly [4]

Answer:

The lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first line is x-y=1

In slope-intercept form, this line has equation: y=x-1

The second line is y-x=1

In slope-intercept form, the line has equation: y=x+1

The slopes of the two lines are the same (m=1)

however, the y-intercepts of these lines are different (-1) and (+1) respectively.

The first choice is correct.

The two lines are parallel and hence will never intersect.

A triangle has one leg of 24 inches and one leg of 10 inches. For the triangle to be a right triangle, what must be the length o
meriva

Answer: 26 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypoteneuse is the longest side in a triangle. From the question, we are already informed that a triangle has one leg of 24 inches and one leg of 10 inches.

To calculate the hypotenuse, we add the square of both legs together which are the opposite and adjacent and then find the square root. This will be

hypotenuse² = 24² + 10²

hypotenuse² = 576 + 100

hypotenuse² = 676

hypotenuse = ✓676

hypotenuse = 26

The hypothenuse is 26 inches

Anna11 [10]
<span>Give the Algebraic expression for the difference of 10 and u.
Algebraic expression is the expression that contains the combination of number, variables and operators like addition, division, subtraction and multiplication.
In the given expression we need to convert it into algebraic expression.
=> expression of the difference of 10 and u
=> difference = result of  subtraction
=> 10 is the number to be subtracted by u
=> u = is the unknown number to subtract to 10
=> 10 – u</span>
