X=205 y=41 You come across these answers by making an equation or system of equations based on the word problem given. 1. x+y=246 and 2. x÷y=5 . The you would multiply by y on both sides and get x=5y . Then you would substitute for x in the first equation and get (5y)+y=246 . Then you would get 6y=246 . Them you would divide by 6 on both sides and get y=246÷6 . Then you would get y=41. Then you would plug the y value into the first equation. You would get that x+(41)= 246, subtract on both sides and get x=246-41, then you would get an answer of x=205.

The best answer is D.

According to the pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2 in a right triangle where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

The diagram given gives the length of both legs, so plug it into the equation to get c^2= 24^2+45^2
