<h3>
Answer: 12 inches</h3>
=============================================================
Explanation:
Notice the double tickmarks on segments WZ and ZY. This tells us the two segments are the same length. Let's say they are m units long, where m is a placeholder for a positive number.
That would mean m+m = 2m represents the length of segment WY, but that's equal to 10 as the diagram shows. We have 2m = 10 lead to m = 5 after dividing both sides by 2.
We've shown that WZ and ZY are 5 units long each. In short, we just cut that length of 10 in half.
-----------------------------------
Let's focus on triangle XYZ. This is a right triangle with legs XZ = unknown and ZY = 5. The hypotenuse is XY = 13.
We'll use the pythagorean theorem to find XZ
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(XZ)^2 + (ZY)^2 = (XY)^2
(XZ)^2 + (5)^2 = (13)^2
(XZ)^2 + 25 = 169
(XZ)^2 = 169-25
(XZ)^2 = 144
XZ = sqrt(144)
XZ = 12
Segment XZ is 12 inches long.
In a store, perhaps. People want it to be easy to shop, so it would be best for say, a top ramen package to be the same net weight as all the other top ramen packages. This makes it 1) easy to label and 2) easy to be confident buying, as it is exactly the same as all the others.
<span>(x-7)^2 = (x-7)(x-7) = x^2 -7x -7x +49 = x^2-14x+49</span>
answer is 'x^2+14x+49'
Total amount of money received by David for working at his father's store = $50
Amount of money spent by David at the movies = $20
Amount of money spent by David buying comics books = $10
Amount of money spent by David buying candy = $5
Then
Total amount spent by David = (20 + 10 + 5) dollars
= 35 dollars
Amount of money saved by David = (50 - 35 ) dollars
= 15 dollars
So
The ratio of the amount of money David
spent to the amount of money David saved = 35:15
= 7:3
So the ratio of the amount of money David spent to the amount of money David saved is 7:3
