Answer:

14.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 7y = 12

x - y = 1 Multiply this by -3:

-3x + 3y = -3 Add this to equation 1:

0 + 10y = 9

so y = 9/10 = 0.9.

x - 0.9 = 1

x = 1.9.

So 5x + 5y = 5*1.9 + 5*0.9

= 14.

$ab = x + 10 \\ bc = x + 14 \\ ac = 22 \\ (x + 10) + (x + 14) = 22 \\ x + x + 10 + 14 = 22 \\ 2x + 24 = 22 \\ 2x = 22 - 24 \\ 2x = - 2 \\ x = \frac{ -2}{2} \\ x = - 1$

Answer:

the third side is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagorean theorem of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 for right triangles, substitute

the numbers to show ( $\sqrt{65})^{2}$ + $b^{2}$ = $9^{2}$ and solve for b. The square root and square cancel each other out, so you get 65 + $b^{2}$ = 81.

Subtract 65 from both sides to get $b^{2}$ = 16.

Then take the square root of both sides to get b = $\sqrt{16}$ which equals 4.
