<span>The answer is B.
The reason being is that in this option they have set both sides of the equation separately equal to y. Since they are equal to each other, they would both have to be equal to an unknown y. This would look like this.
y = 1/4x - 3
y = 1/2x + 8.
Then to remove the fractions in each, they multiplied by the denominator associated with x. So, you multiply the first equation by 4.
4y = x - 12.
Then they solve for the numerical value at the end.
4y - x = -12.
You can do the same with the second equation.
y = 1/2x + 8
2y = x + 16
2y - x = 16
These are now the two equations above. </span>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so confused right now
For the triangle, x is 12 units long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
The hypotenuse is the side which is the longest in the triangle and is always opposite the right angle.
In the given triangle, the hypotenuse is 13 units long. The other two sides measure 5 units and x units.
Step 2:
By substituting the known values, we get



Rounding this off to the nearest hundred, we get that x is 12 units long.
