Answer:
11.5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The fact that the figures are similar means the side lengths are proportional:
RS/QT = BC/AD
RS/(7 m) = (2.3 m)/(1.4 m)
RS = (7 m)(2.3/1.4) . . . . . . multiply by 7 m
RS = 11.5 m
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Remember:
![(\sqrt[n]{a})^n=a\\\\(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Ba%7D%29%5En%3Da%5C%5C%5C%5C%28a%2Bb%29%3Da%5E2%2B2ab%2Bb%5E2)
Given the equation
, you need to solve for the variable "x" to find its value.
You need to square both sides of the equation:


Simplifying, you get:

Factor the quadratic equation. Find two numbers whose sum be 7 and whose product be -8. These are: -1 and 8:

Then:

Let's check if the first solution is correct:

(It checks)
Let's check if the second solution is correct:

(It does not checks)
Therefore, the solution is:

Round 5.2 down to 5 and Round 6.7 to 7.
5+7=12
