  (a)  22w +58 = 280

Step-by-step explanation:

At 22 pages each week, after w weeks, the author will have written 22w pages. When this is added to the number already written, the result is the expected total:

  22w +58 = 280

Solving this will tell how many weeks it will take.

+25 = x

step-by-step explanation:

here x is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 7 and 24.   by the pythagorean theorem, 7² + 24² must equal x²:

x² = 49 + 576 = 625.   thus, x = +√625 = +25 = x
