5x^2-4x+1 + -3x^2+x-3= 2x^2-3x-2
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>:-
given the lengths of two sides of a right angle are represented by 2x and 3(x+1) and longest side is 17 units.
AB = 2x and BC = 3(x+1) and longest side AC= 17
by using Pythagoras theorem

<u>step 2:-</u>
The hypotenuse is longest side is AC = 17 units
(17)^2 = 4x^2 +9(X+1)^2
on simplification, we will use formula

289 = 4x^2 +9(x^2+2x+1)

finding factors 70 X 52 = 3640


Taking common , we get
13x(x-4)+70(x-4)=0
x-4=0 and 13x+70=0
x=4 and 
x=4 and 
we can not choose negative value so x value is 4
Final answer:- x = 4
<u>verification:-</u>

289 = 4(4)^2+9(4+1)^2
289 = 64 +9(25)
289=289
Answer:
(5n+4p)(5n+4p) or (5n+4p)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
i took the test :p
The two triangles are similar, so will have a direct scale factor. We can find this by using the given measurements, 10÷8=1.25. So the scale factor from the smaller to the bigger triangle is 1.25. This means that 1.25×(x+6)=AE. We can solve this as we would with a regular linear equation:
1.25(x+6)=2x+6
1.25x+7.5=2x+6
1.5=0.75x
2=x
∴ AE is 2x+6=10
