- The two areas are the same.
- To find the area, we multiply the side lengths. Y=area
Rectangle 1: side lengths 4 and (x+1)
y=4(x+1)= 4x+4
Rectangle 2: side lengths 3 and (2x-2)
y=3(2x-2)= 6x-6
- Since the two areas are same, we can conclude that
4x+4=6x-6
- Now, simplify.
-2x=-10, x=5
- Since x is 5, we can plug it into the equations to find y.
Option 1 with rectangle 1: y=4(5)+4, y=24
Option 2 with rectangle 2: y=6(5)-5, y=24
I graphed the linear equation on desmos.
<em>10 meters.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the missing side of a right triangle, we can use the <u>Pythagorean theorem</u>.
The Pythagorean theorem is...
Please be sure to note that a and b will <em>always </em>be the length of the sides and c will <em>always </em>be the hypotenuse, or in this case the ramp.
Since we know the values of both of the sides we can plug this into the theorem.
Now we can solve.
Add.
Many people will make the mistake of thinking 100 is the final answer, but since c is squared we need to find the square root of 100.
c = 10
<em><u>The ramp is 10 meters.</u></em>
