Least to greatest: 5 10/11 , 5.822 , 5.84, 117/20.
Answer:
The distance is
or
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of parallel: 2
Slope of perpendicular: -1/2
Pick a point for y =2x + 7. For example (0,7)
Use the perpendicular slope to get to the other line to find the other point of y=2x-3. Look at the screenshot...I got (4,5).
Distance formula 
Insert (0,7) and (4,5)
= 
2x -8 that’s how u write it in an expression
Answer:
45 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the longer leg. Then the hypotenuse is x+8 and the shorter leg is x-17. The Pythagorean theorem gives the relation between these values as ...
(x +8)^2 = x^2 +(x -17)^2
x^2 +16x +64 = 2x^2 -34x +289 . . . . eliminate parentheses
0 = x^2 -50x +225 . . . . . put in standard form
0 = (x -45)(x -5) . . . . . . . . factor
Solutions to this equation are x=5 and x=45. The value of x must be greater than 17, so the useful solution is x=45.
The length of the longer leg of the triangle is 45 cm.
