Answer:
For longest x = 6.4
For shortest x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a right angle triangle with lengths 4 units and 5 units and x units .
x can be gotten using Pythagoras theorem .
If x Is the longest side , then
x^2 = 5^2 + 4^2
= 5x5 + 4x4
= 25 + 16
x^2 = 41
x = squared root of 41
x = 6.4
If x is the shortest side ,
x^2 = 5^2 - 4^2
= 5x5 - 4x4
= 25 - 16
x^2 = 9
x = squared root of 9
x = 3
Answer:
-24
Step-by-step explanation:
First, use the equation find the value of x. Then, substitutes the value of x into 9x+12.
Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank
boat one has travelled 700 (rate = 700/unit time) boat two has travelled x rate = x / unit time
boat one then travels x + 400 more and boat two travels 700 + (700+x -400) more when they meet
The time is the same rate x time = distance distance/rate = time equate the distances divided by the respective rates
(700 + x + 400)/700 = ( x + 700 + (700+x-400) )/x
1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000
x^2-300x -700000 = 0 quadratic formula yields x = 1000
One boat travels 700 the other 1000 whe they first meet.....width of river = 700+ 1000 = 1700 m
