Answer:

AC = 7.12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle has two legs and a hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is opposite the right angle. As Angle C is the right angle, then the triangle can be constructed as shown in the picture attached. The sides of the triangle have a relationship known as the Pythagorean Theorem a² + b² = c². In the theorem, the legs of the triangle are a and b while the hypotenuse is c. Substitute a = x, b = x+6, and c = √52. Simplify and solve.

a² + b² = c²

x² + (x+6)² = √52²

x² + x² + 12x + 36 = 52

2x² + 12x - 16 = 0

You can use the quadratic formula to solve by substituting a = 2, b = 12, and c = -16.

The quadratic formula is x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}.

Substitute and you'll have:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} =\frac{-12+/-\sqrt{12^2-4(2)(-16)} }{2(2)}=\frac{-12+/-\sqrt{144+128} }{4)}

\frac{-12+/-\sqrt{272} }{4}=\frac{-12+/-16.5 }{4} = 1.12, 7.13

Only 1.12 is a solution since 7.13 will not satisfy the Pythagorean theorem

Side AC is 6 units longer than side BC. This means x = BC and AC = x + 6.

AC = 1.12 + 6 = 7.12

I need help with that, if you can, plz. I ty it I think is a not sure
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

-5≤x <1

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt( x+5) / sqrt(1-x)

The numerator must be greater than zero since it is a square root

sqrt(x+5) ≥0

Square each side

x+5≥0

x≥-5

The denominator must be greater than zero (the denominator cannot be zero)

sqrt(1-x)> 0

Square each side

1-x > 0

1>x

Putting these together

-5≤x <1
