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:
3x-5+2y
Step-by-step explanation:
Wasnt much detail to the question so i created a random algebra expression you cannot have an equal sign for an expression because that would change it from an expression to an equation.

500/5=100
Do (6x12)/2, that should work
Answer:
The integers are 4 and 7 or -2 and 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can make a system of equations with the description of the two integers.
1. x = y + 3
2. 2x + 2 = y^2
The simplest and the fastest way to solve this system in this case is substitution. You can substitute x for y + 3 in the second equation.
1. x = y + 3
2. 2(y + 3) + 2 = y^2
Now simplify and solve the second one. For convenience, I will just disregard the first equation for now.
2y + 6 + 2 = y^2
y^2 - 2y - 8 = 0
You can factor this equation to solve for y.
(y - 4) (y + 2) = 0
y = 4, y = -2
Now we can substitute the value of y for x in the first equation.
x = 7, x = 1
