C is the answer I got it right
Answer:
The answer is 15 units hope that helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply pythagorean formulae here
Take the 17 as hypotenuse... And 8 as the base....
So the pythagorean formulae is
( hypotenuse) Square = (height) Square + (base) Square......
Hence put the values and the height comes as 15 units
BTW are u Indian?...
If you graph y=7x-9 and y=3x-1 the two lines will intersect at one point. That is how you graphically "solve" the system of equations.
Both of these lines are of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
So for y=7x-9, the slope is 7 and the y-intercept is -9
For y=3x-1, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is -1
....
The solution for this system occurs when both coordinates are equal to each other so we can say:
7x-9=3x-1 subtract 3x from both sides
4x-9=-1 add 9 to both sides
4x=8 divide both sides by 4
x=2, making y=3x-1 become:
y=3(2)-1=6-1=5, so the solution to the system of equations is:
(2,5)
The first statement makes most sense
