Answer:

hypotenuse is 22.47 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of both legs of a right angle triangle are 8m and 21 m

We need to find the hypotenuse

To find hypotenuse we use Pythagorean theorem

Hypotenuse is AC and other two legs are AB and BC

$AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

Hypotenuse ^2 = 8^2 + 21^2

hypotenuse = $\sqrt{8^2 + 21^2}$

= $\sqrt{64 + 441}$

= $\sqrt{505}$

= 22.47

So the length of the hypotenuse is 22.47 m

Solve the equation below for the exact values of 4x2-5=75

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

x = ± 2 $\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x² - 5 = 75 ( add 5 to both sides )

4x² = 80 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x² = 20 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{20}$

= ± $\sqrt{4(5)}$

= ± 2 $\sqrt{5}$

The ratio of length to width on a rectangle is

kvasek [131]

Answer:

$Let~the~length~of~rectangle~be~'l'~and~its~width~be~'b'.\\According ~to ~question,\\l:b=11:3\\or, \frac{l}{b} =\frac{11}{3} \\or, l = \frac{11b}{3}\\Also,\\Perimeter~of~the~rectangle=308\\or, 2(l+b)=308\\or, l+b=154\\or, \frac{11 b}{3}+b =154 \\or, \frac{11b+3b}{3} =154\\or, 14b = 154(3)\\or, b=33 units\\So, ~the~width~of~rectangle~is~33units.$

Alternative method:

$Let~the~length~and~width~of~the~rectangle~be~11x~and~3x.\\Given,\\Perimeter~of~the~rectangle = 308\\or, 2(11x+3x)=308\\or, 14x = 154\\or, x = 11\\Now,\\Width~of~the~rectangle,3x = 3(11)=33 units\\So,~the~width~of~the~rectangle~is~33units.$

What steps does Emory need to solve the equation x+7=3x+(-5)

swat32

Answer:

First you need to find what x is equal to.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3x-5 is what you need to find divide 3 by 3x to get x alone and do the same for -5/ 3 which -1.6666667, and you can estimate it to be -1.67 so x is about -1.67.
