Option A: >
Solution:
Given a triangle GHJ.
The line GH is perpendicular to line HJ.
This means the triangle is a right angled triangle.
In ΔGHJ, GH is the base of the triangle and
HJ is a height of the triangle.
Then the third side must be the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
We know that by the Pythagoras theorem,
This clearly shows that the hypotenuse is greater than the height.
⇒ GJ > HJ
Option A: > is the correct answer.
If line GH is perpendicular to line HJ, then GJ is > HJ.

Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 2(x + 3y) + 3y
= 7x - 2x - 6y + 3y
= 5x - 3y
Will got 5x + 9y because he didn't multiply the values in the bracket by the minus sign outside the bracket. He multiplied the values by +2 rather than -2. This resulted in the wrong answer that he got.

Answer:
Elissa needs 4 quarts of paint, or 1 gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Elissa's room is in the shape of a rectangular prism. Assuming that she will only be painting the walls and not the floor or ceiling, you just need to calculate the area of the four walls - front and back and side to side. Based on the dimensions given, the area of Elissa's front and back walls are 8 ft x 9 ft or 72 ft² for each wall. Since there are two, we take that area times two: 72 x 2 = 144 ft².
Elissa's side walls are 8 ft x 13 ft or 104 ft² for each wall. Since there are two, we take this area times two: 104 x 2 = 208 ft².
To find the total area needed to paint, we add all four walls: 144 + 208 = 352 ft². Since a quart of paint covers 100 ft² and a gallon covers 400 ft², Elissa can either purchase 4 quarts of paint or 1 gallon to paint her bedroom.
