Answer:

16 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 part of the ratio represents 24 inches.

Dividing by 3 gives the value of one part of the ratio.

24 in ÷ 3 = 8 in ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

2 parts = 2 × 8 in = 16 in ← hypotenuse of smaller triangle

I only know 23
6x-4 x=4-6=-10
4x+24 x=24-4=20
So! 20-(-10)=10 or 30 because you change the sign with this rule
if the sign are the same you keep change, change. which means keep 20 change - to + and change - to +, so then it becomes 20+(+10)

2x-2(-2x+1)=4

reduce

2x+4x-2=4

6x=6

x=1

y= -2(1)+1

y= -1
