Answer:

Kay sold 67; Allen sold 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" represent the number of phones that Allen sold.

a + (a+17) = 117 . . . equation used to find the answer

2a = 100 . . . . . . . . subtract 17, collect terms

a = 50 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; the number Allen sold

a+17 = 67 . . . . . . . . Kay sold 17 more than Allen

Mumz [18]

Answer:

Let the base be p

Hypotenuse = 2p +6

Perpendicular = 2p + 4

By Pythagoras theoram

(2p+6)^2 = (2p+4)^2 +p^2

=> 4p^2 +36 + 24p = 4p^2 + 16 +16p +p^2

=> 36+ 24p = p^2 + 16p + 16

=> p^2 - 8p - 20 = 0

=> p^2 - 10p +2p - 20 = 0

=> p(p-10) +2(p-10) = 0

=> (p-10)(p+2) = 0

p = 10 and - 2

Length can't be negative

So,

p = 10

Base = 10

Perpendicular = 24

Hypotenuse = 26
