Answer: Hi!
Answers B and D are correct.
For B, since negative numbers are on the left side of the number line, a positive number would have to be to the right of a negative number. Since we are adding a negative and a positive number of the same absolute value (9), they would cancel out to 0, which makes D true.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Difference between the distances traveled by Mary and Kate = 226 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
By applying Pythagoras theorem in right ΔDEF,
(DE)² + (EF)² = (DF)²
By substituting DE = 264 feet and EF = 900 feet
(264)² + (900)² = (DF)²
DF = √(69696+810000)
= √879696
= 937.92
Distance traveled by Kate diagonally = 938 feet
Distance traveled by Mary = DE + EF
= 264 + 900
= 1164 feet
Difference between the distances traveled by Mary and Kate = DF - (DE + EF)
= 1164 - 937.92
= 226.07
≈ 226 feet
Since the triangles are congruent your equation would be 2y+8=19
Solve for y
y=5.5
