Use subtraction to find the lengths of segments WX and XY.
Point W is on (9,3), point X is on (5,3) and point Y is on (5,9), if I'm reading this correctly.
Point W and point X match with their y-values, so we ignore them. Subtract the x-values, 9 and 5, to get the length. In this case, the length is 4 units.
Point X and point Y match with their x-values, so we ignore them. Subtract the y-values, 3 and 9, to get 6.
Since the problem is asking for length, you always subtract the smaller number from the larger one, as you can't have a negative distance or length.
Answer: 420
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
7 appetizers and 10 entrees and 6 desserts
7 x 10 x 6 = 420
Okay well the starting is 28 dollars, right. But since there is a 20 percent discount, you have to turn 20% to a decimal. That means moving the decimal sign twice to the left to make it .20. From the it would be .20*28, that should equal 5.6. Now, that 5.6 is the amount you have to take away, it is the price of the sale. From then, you subtract which is 28-5.6 which should be 22.4. From that 22.4 you now take away two dollars and then it should be 22.4-2 which should be 20.4. Now that is your answer, 20.4.
4x + 10 = 2x + 20
4x - 2x = 20 - 10
2x = 10
x = 5
