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:
9 < x
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 47< 3(12x - 108) – 2
Distribute
5x - 47< 36x - 324 – 2
Combine like terms
5x - 47< 36x-326
Subtract 5x from each side
5x-5x - 47< 36x-5x-326
- 47< 31x-326
Add 326 to each side
326 - 47< 31x-326+326
279 < 31x
Divide by 31 on each side
279/31 < 31x/31
9 < x
(22 + 15.50 + 2.75) 15
(22 * 15) + (15.50 * 15) + (2.75 * 15)
