Answer: hehe, I don’t understand spAnIsh
Step-by-step explanation:
so you are going to use the Pythagorean theorem on the smaller triangle to find the connecting side's length

now you can find the bigger triangle's hypotenuse

c=4
Answer: Choice A. (8, 4)
==========================================================
Explanation:
Because x = 2y, we can replace every copy of x with 2y
Let's do so in the second equation
3x - 4y = 8
3(x) - 4y = 8
3(2y) - 4y = 8 .... x replaced with 2y; now let's isolate y
6y - 4y = 8
2y = 8
y = 8/2 ..... divide both sides by 2
y = 4
Use this y value to find x
x = 2y
x = 2*4
x = 8
So we have x = 8 and y = 4 pair together to get the answer (x,y) = (8, 4) which is choice A.
Find the greatest common factor (GCF)
in this case it would be 9
divide each term by the GCF
36 / 9 = 4
9y / 9 = y
put the two "new" terms in parenthesis and the GCF in front of it
9 (4 + y)
it could also be 9 (y + 4) because of Commutative Property of Addition
