Answer:
the answer is 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x
- 3 (x - 12) = - 54
-3x + 36 = -54
-3x = -54 - 36
-3x = -90
x = -90/-3
x = 30
7/8+9/10=71/40=1 31/40
1/4+2/3=11/12
1/2+1/4 is different from 1/2+1/3 because
1/2+1/4= 2/4+1/4= 5/1 =1 1/4
1/2+1/3=3/6+2/6=5/6
Note that c is the hypotenuse of the blue triangle, and that the Pyth. Thm. states that (length of one leg)^2 + (length of the other leg)^2 = (hyp)^2.
Therefore, (hyp)^2 = c^2 = [2sqrt(x^2+3x)]^2 + 3^2, or
= 4(x^2+3x) + 9, or
= 4x^2 + 12x + 9 = (2x+3)^2
Taking the sqrt of both sides, c = plus or minus (2x+3). Eliminate -(2x+3) because the middle term of the square of this would be negative, in conflict with the given +12x.
c=2x+3 is the correct answer.
That is so cool, thanks for the trick idea.
