B=h+4, m=h-2  now we are told

b+h+m=11, using b and m found above in this equation gives us:

h+4+h+h-2=11

3h+2=11

3h=9

h=3 and since b=h+4, m=h-2

historical=3, biography=7, mystery=1

Hello there.

<span>A high school student reads four more biographies than historical fiction books during the semester. The student also reads two fewer mysteries than historical fiction books. 
If the student reads a total of 11 books during the semester, how many of each type did they read?
</span>
Answer: Put the values into an equation.
Historical fiction can be x
The equation is:
x + x + 4 + x -2 = 11
3x + 2 = 11
11 - 2 = 9
9/3 = 3
They read 3 historical fiction.
They read 7 biographies.
They read 1 mystery.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^

If point W is -4,-2 and point V is -2,-2 what is the length of VW
Helen [10]

Answer:

2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of VW is just the distance between the two coordinates. You could use the distance formula, or an easier and faster way would be to recognize that since both points have the same y-coordinate, the distance between them will just be the distance of the x-coordinates. The absolute value of -4 and -2 is 2, so the length of VW is 2 units.

Hope this helped! ;)
