Challenge Emily and Andy each go to a hardware store to buy wire. The table shows the cost y in dollars for x inches of the wire they need. Emily needs
23 feet of the wire. Andy needs 11 yards of the wire. How much will each of
them spend for wire?

step-by-step explanation:

rectangles are made up of 4 right angles, which means that a side and a base meet perpendicular to one another.   their slopes then have to reflect perpendicular slopes.   perpendicular slopes are opposite reciprocals of one another.   for example, if the slope of one line is +2/3, then the perpendicular slope to that would be -3/2.   so we look for that combination in our choices.

all of them satisfy that condition (so what's the question, i guess? )

the answer is a, biohazard symbol

using the formula for pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2)(the twos are exponents), and knowing that you have b squared and c squared, just reverse it. 26 squared minus 10 squared equals c squared. 26 squared is 676 and 10 squared is 100. you get 576, then use your square roots to undo the squared numbers to get 24.
