Answer:
101 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The direct path across the stream and perpendicular to both sides of the stream is one leg of a right triangle. The 20 meter distance on the arriving side of the stream is another leg of the right triangle. The path he actually took is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
leg 1 = 99 m
leg 2 = 20 m
hypotenuse = ?
We have a right triangle, and we know the lengths of the two legs. We need to find the length of the hypotenuse, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
99^2 + 20^2 = c^2
9801 + 400 = c^2
c^2 = 10201
c = sqrt(10201) = 101
Answer: 101 meters
9m+14=2m
9m-2m= -14
7m = -14
m= -2
to check: u need to chance the m to -2
9m - 2m= -14
9 × -2= -18
-2 × -2= -4
-18 - (-4)= -14
i think is right

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
LET ORANGES=X
PEARS ARE 3 TIMES =3X
LET CHILDREN=Y
IF WE GIVE 5 ORANGES PER CHILD WE NEED 5Y ORANGES.SO THIS =X
X=5Y........................I
IF WE GIVE 8 PEARS PER CHILD WE NEED 8Y PERARS...THERE ARE STILL 21 PEARS LEFT OUT AFTER THIS THAT IS
8Y+21=3X....................II
SUBSTITUTING FOR X FROM EQN.I..
8Y+21=3*5Y
15Y-8Y=21
7Y=21
Y=3
X==5Y=5*3=15..
SO CHILDREN =3
ORANGES=15
PEARS=3*15=45
