One side of a laptop is 9.5 inches and the other side is 14 inches. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, what is the length of the diagonal of the laptop? Answer choices are rounded to the nearest inch.

17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: a²+b²=c²

a²=90.25

b²=196

c²=286.25

c=length of diagonal

c=16.9189243

c≅17 inches

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
