Answer:
WX = 33
(x, y) = (2, 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
The hash marks tell you WX is a midline, so has the measure of the average of the two bases.
WX = (PQ +SR)/2 = (27 +39)/2 = 66/2
WX = 33
__
The hash marks also tell you ...
PW = WS
y +4x = 18 . . . . . . substitute the given expressions
and also
QX = XR
2y +x = 22 . . . . . substitute the given expressions
__
If you solve the first equation for y, you get ...
y = 18 -4x
Substituting that into the second equation gives ...
2(18-4x) +x = 22
36 -7x = 22 . . . . . . . simplify
14 = 7x . . . . . . . . . . . add 7x-22 to both sides
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7
y = 18 -4(2) = 10 . . . find y using the above relation
The values of x and y are 2 and 10, respectively.

My favorite "quick and dirty" way to solve a set of linear equations is using a graphing calculator. It works well for integer solutions.
Answer:
(B)
4 +/- 3 sqrt(2) or 4+3sqrt(2) and 4-3sqrt(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
4(c-4)^2=72
4(c-4)(c-4)=72
foil the parenthesis (first, outside, inside, last)
4(c^2 -4c -4c +16)=72
4(c^2-8c+16)=72
divide each side by 4
c^2-8c+16=18
subtract 18 from both sides
c^2-8c-2
use quadratic formula
((-b +/- sqrt((-b^2)-4ac)))/2a
((-(-8)+/-sqrt((-8)^2-4(1)(-2)))/2(1))
(8+/-sqrt(64-(-8)))/2
(8+/-sqrt(64+8))/2
(8+/-sqrt(72))/2
(8+/-sqrt(36 * 2))/2
(8+/-6sqrt(2))/2
4+/-3sqrt(2)
or 4+3sqrt(2) and 4-3sqrt(2)
Answer:
The first one/$9 an hour job.
Step-by-step explanation:
For every 32 hours he works at the $9 per hour job he makes $288.
On the other hand, for every 32 hours he works at the $7 per hour job he only makes $224.
So the only one that'll work where he gets at least $251 is the $9 an hour job.
