Using the Pythagorean theorem:
x^2 + (x-2)^2 = (√20)^2
Simplify the right side:
x^2 + (x-2)^2 = 20
Subtract 20 from both sides:
x^2 + (x-2)^2 - 20 = 0
Factor:
(x-4)(x+2) = 0
Solve for each x:
x = 4 and x = -2
The side cant be a negative value, so the answer would be x = 4
The answer is B.
Answer:
x = -1 and y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let u = 1/x, and v = 1/y
Then the pair of equations
-3/x + 4/y = 11
1/x - 2/y = -5
Can be written as
-3u + 4v = 11 .................................(1)
u - 2v = -5......................................(2)
From (2)
u = 2v - 5 .......................................(3)
Substituting (3) into (1)
-3(2v - 5) + 4v = 11
-6v + 15 + 4v = 11
-6v + 4v = 11 - 15
-2v = -4
v = 4/2 = 2
Substituting this value of v in (3)
u = 2v - 5
u = 2(2) - 5
= 4 - 5
= -1
That is
u = -1, v = 2
Since u = 1/x, and v = 1/y, we have
1/x = -1
=> x = -1
And
1/y = 2
=> y = 1/2
Therefore
x = -1 and y = 1/2
Answer:
