The class is made up of male and female students.

"A drama class has a total of 26 students"

f + m = 26

"The number of females is 16 less than the number of males"

f = m - 16

Substitute the second equation into the first.

m - 16 + m = 26

- combine like terms -

2m - 16 = 26

- add 16 to both sides -

2m = 42

- divide by 2 -

m = 21

Now substitute that answer into either equation

f + 21 = 26

- subtract both sides by 21 -

f = 5

Remember that whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other

What is the length of the line?
mamaluj [8]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{\text{ D. } \sqrt{136}}

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the line.

If we draw an imaginary right triangle using the given line as the hypotenuse, we can derive a height of 6 units and a length of 10 units.

Use the Pythagorean theorem equation:

c² = a² + b²

Plug in the height and length:

c² = 6² + 10²

Simplify:

c² = 36 + 100

c² = 136

Take the square root of both sides:

c = √136. The correct answer is D.
