Short leg = x-6m
Longer leg =x
Hypotenuse = x+6m

x² + (x-6)² =(x+6)²
x² + x²-12x+36 = x²+12x+36
2x²-12x+36= x² +12x+36
2x²-12x+36-36= x² +12x+36-36
2x² - 12x-12x = x²+12x-12x
2x² -24x-x² = x²-x²
x² -24x = 0
x(x-24)=0
x = 24

Short leg = 24-6m = 18
Longer leg =24
Hypotenuse = 24+6m=30

Check
a² + b² = c²
18² +24² =30²
324 +576 = 900
900=900

The side lengths of a triangle are given by the expressions 5x+3,5x+5,and3x-2.write and simplify a linear expression for the per
serg [7]

The perimeter of the triangle is: 13x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of the outer boundary of any closed geometrical shape.

So,

Given

Side\ 1 = s_1 = 5x+3\\Side\ 2 = s_2 = 5x+5\\Side\ 3 = s_3 = 3x-2

The perimeter will be:

P = s_1+s_2+s_3\\= (5x+3)+(5x+5)+(3x-2)\\=5x+5x+3x+3+5-2\\=13x+6

The perimeter of the triangle is: 13x+6

Find how many solutions there are to the given equation that satisfy the given condition.
den301095 [7]

Answer:

17550 solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

y1 +y2+y3+y4=27

where;

(yi  ≥ 0 and yi \epsilon {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} }  )

The no. of a nonnegative integer determines the number of ways to choose 27 objects from (4) distinct objects with repetition regardless of the order.

i.e

\bigg(^{27}_{4} \bigg)

∴

The number of nonnegative integer solution is \bigg(^{27}_{4} \bigg)

= \dfrac{27!}{4!(27-4)!}

= \dfrac{27!}{4!(23)!}

= \dfrac{27\times 26\times 25\times 24 \times  23 !}{4\times 3\times 2\times 1(23)!}

= \dfrac{27\times 26\times 25\times 24 }{4\times 3\times 2\times 1}

= \dfrac{421200}{24}

= 17550 solutions
