Answer:

  x = 23; not extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution is extraneous if it does not satisfy the original equation. Extraneous solutions can sometimes be introduced in the process of solving radical and rational function equations.

<h3>Solution</h3>

Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get ...

  √(3x +12) = 9

  3x +12 = 81 . . . . . . square both sides

  x +4 = 27 . . . . . . . divide by 3

  x = 23 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4

<h3>Check</h3>

There is only one solution, and it satisfies the equation:

  √(3×23 +12) = √81 = 9

The solution x = 23 is not extraneous.

A small garden measures 8 ft by 7 ft. A uniform border around the garden increases the total area to 110 ft 2. What is the width
Alik [6]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can answer this question by using the equation

(8+x)(7+x)=110

The x represents the width, as we do not know the area. If you simplify the equation, it becomes 56+15x+x2=110.

If you move all the terms to the left side, and rearrange it, it can become x^2+15x-54=0

This can be simplified into (x-3)(x+18)=0

This equation makes it so that x is either 3 or -18. It is not possible for a width to be -18, so the width must be 3.

I need help with this question.
Valentin [98]

Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale factor of 0.75 means all the dimensions are multiplied by 0.75. When the dimension 10 is multiplied by 0.75, it becomes ...

... x = 0.75 × 10 = 7.5

Is a triangle with the given side lengths of 15cm, 17cm, and 19cm a right triangle?
Alexandra [31]
Lets see!
We need to use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to check.
So..
15^2+ 17^2 = 19^2
225+ 289= 361
Hm 225 and 289 do NOT equal 361 therefore it is NOT a right triangle.
