Answer:
70 yd.
Step-by-step explanation:
The three streets at the intersection form a right triangle.
For a right triangle, the length of the longest side (called hypothenuse) is given by Pythagorean's theorem:
where
x is the length of the 1st side
y is the length of the 2nd side
h is the length of the hypothenuse
Here we want to find the hypothenuse.
We have:
x = 42 yd (length of the 1st side)
y = 56 yd (length of the 2nd side)
Substituting, we find h:
5x-2+3x=17+12x-23 combine like terms
8x-2=12x-6
-8x -8x
-2=4x-6
+6 +6
4=4x divide each side by 4
x=1
Answer:
y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
m is the slope =y2-y1/x2-x1=9-9/-2-3=0
pick any number out of the given two for (x1, x2)
y-9 = 0*(x-3) so
y-9 = 0 add 9 to both sides
y = 9
xn+yn=zn where n>2 and n is an integer

We are given here the individual costs of DVD and CD as well as the total sales and the number of items sold on one day. To solve the number of DVDs and CDs sold each, we devise two independent linear equations:
(1) x + y = 39
(2) 4x + 7y = 204
x- number of DVDs; y - number of CDs
solving, x= 23 DVDs
y = 16 CDs
