Leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2
6^2+8^2=x^2
36+64=x^2
100=x^2
Now to get x by itself you need to get rid of ^2
You do this by squat rooting both sides. The square root of 100 is 10 (10•10=100)
So 10=x
M = miles Marcos drove
c = miles Candice drove
m = 2c
m + c = 66
Plug m=2c into the second equation :
m + c = 66
(2c) + c = 66
3c = 66
Choice A
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the word format of an equation.
Let's right it out in numerical form.

The first part says One fourth the sum of x and 10
The sum of x and 10 would be shown as x + 10, and one fourth of that means that
is multiplying (x + 10).
In this case, identical would mean equal to.
So,
(x + 10) would be = to something.
It says that it is identical to x minus 4 (x - 4).

First, open the parentheses (make sure you distribute the '-':
6x - 3x - 4 = x - 40
3x - 4 = x - 40
2x = -36
x = -18
The solution set is {-18}
