Since this is a right triangle, you can use the pythagorean theorem, 
, to find XY. Since we know that 15 and 17 are our legs and that XY is the hypotenuse, we can solve it as such:
In short, XY is √514, or 22.67 rounded to the hundreths, units long.
For (A.) Get a common denominator, 40/12 - 9/12 = 31/12 or (2 and 7/12)
For (B.) Get a common denominator, 24/15 - 10/15 = 14/15 (Simplified)
For (C.) Get a common denominator, 51/30 - 25/30 = 26/30 or (13/15)
For (D.) Get a common denominator, 14/6 - 9/6 = 5/6 (Simplified)
Hope this helps!

Answer:
10, 4, 8
Step-by-step explanation:
10 - 4 = 6
4 - 4 = 0
8 - 4 = 4
X^2+5^2=7^2
x^2+25=49
(49-25)
x^2=24
sqrt(24)=4.89897948557
