Answer:
17 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
An obtuse triangle is the triangle in which one of the side is the longest. It contains an obtuse angle and the longest side is the side that is opposite to the vertex of the obtuse angle.
Let the three sides of the obtuse triangle be a, b and c respectively with c as the longest side. Let a = 9 inches and b = 14 inches.
Now we know that for an obtuse triangle,




c > 16.64
Therefore the smallest possible whole number is 17 inches.
Their lines intersect at this point, which mean that they did the same thing, so it can't be A or D, and we dont know the total number of pages so we can't for sure say it's B.
So it's C, because we can see that the point is on 10 for the x-axis, which represents # of nights, and 150 for the y-axis, which represents # of pages read.

On top: (-2)³ = -2 × -2 × -2 = -8
(x²)³ = x^6 (the exponents multiply)
and of course, (y)³ = y³
On the bottom: (xy²z)² = x² y^4 z²
(-yz)² = y²z²
Multiplying these together, the exponents add and we get x² y^6 z^4.

So, your reasoning is correct for what you have so far.
Your next step would be cancelling shared factors from the top and bottom.
Just like with regular fractions, if the numerator and denominator are divisible by the same number, you can divide them by it to simplify. (ex: 4/6 = 2/3)
Well, x^6 and x^2 are both divisible by x^2, right?
We can also cancel the y^3.
It might help to visualise the factors like this:

Once you've cancelled out x² and y³ from each, you're left with
