Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-1 - 17)/(-8 - (-10)) = -18/(-8 + 10) = -18/2 = -9
Well if it is the same number of Toothbrushes and Toothpaste tubes in a pack then you use the smallest number 12 and this is the answer.
The greatest number of packages he can make is 12.
Since x=x, this is an isosceles right triangle. By the Pythagorean Theorem:
h^2=a^2+b^2 (the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the squared sides)
5^2=x^2+x^2
25=2x^2
2x^2=25
x^2=25/2
x=√(25/2)
x=5/√2 now if we rationalize the denominator...
x=(5√2)/(√2√2)
x=(5√2)/2
