x-7>0

Straight answer: x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the timber is X cm long and 7cm was cut off, there remaining amount is x - 7cm. In order for 7cm to be cut off, the timber must have been > 7cm long => x > 7 => x - 7 > 0

In ∆ABC with m∠C = 90° the sides satisfy the ratio BC:AC:AB = 4:3:5. If the side with middle length is 12 cm, find: 1) The perim
olga55 [171]
*The side with the middle length is 12cm, therefore BC must be 12 cm

BC:AC:AB
  4 : 3 : 5

</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
<span>Find 1 share
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
Given that BC = 12 cm
4 shares = 12 cm
1 share = 12 ÷ 4 = 3cm

</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
Find AC (4 shares)
-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
3 shares = 3 x 3 = 9 cm
BC = 9cm

</span>-----------------------------------------------------------
<span>Find AB (5 shares)
</span>-----------------------------------------------------------<span>
5 shares = 5 x 3 = 15cm
AB = 15cm

Find the value of each variable. Write your answer in simplest radical form.
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

y=4\sqrt{3}

x=2\sqrt{21}

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is shown in the attachment.

By the altitude -leg rule :

\frac{14-8}{y}=\frac{y}{8}

This implies that:

\frac{6}{y}=\frac{y}{8}

By cross multiplication:

y^2=6*8\\\implies y^2=16*3

Take square root to get:

y=\sqrt{16*3}

y=4\sqrt{3}

Using the Pythagoras Theorem:

x^2=6^2+(\sqrt{48})^2

x^2=36+48

x^2=84

x=2\sqrt{21}
