Mathematics
1 answer:
Wewaii [24]3 years ago

Answer:

x=6\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem

step 1

In the right triangle ABC

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

Find out the length side AB

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2

AB^2=AC^2-BC^2

substitute the given values

AB^2=12^2-x^2

AB^2=144-x^2

step 2

In the right triangle ABD

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

Find out the length side BD

AB^2=AD^2+BD^2

BD^2=AB^2-AD^2

substitute the given values

BD^2=144-x^2-3^2

BD^2=144-x^2-9

BD^2=135-x^2 -----> equation A

step 3

In the right triangle BCD

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

Find out the length side BD

BC^2=DC^2+BD^2

BD^2=BC^2-DC^2

substitute the given values

BD^2=x^2-9^2

BD^2=x^2-81 -----> equation B

step 4

equate equation A and equation B

BD^2=135-x^2 -----> equation A

BD^2=x^2-81 -----> equation B

x^2-81=135-x^2

x^2+x^2=135+81

2x^2=216

x^2=108

x=\sqrt{108}

Simplify

x=6\sqrt{3}\ units

Solve the system of linear equations below 2x-y=0 3x-2y=-3
Lynna [10]
2x - y = 0
2x = y

3x - 2(2x) = -3
3x - 4x = -3
-x = -3
x = 3

2(3) = y
6 = y

WILL MAKE BRAINLIEST
Tasya [4]
If Hannah gives her younger sister 3 shirts, it does not matter what order she hands them to her. No matter the order, it will still be the same group of 3 shirt. Since order is not important this problem can be solved using a combination. 
Specifically, we are asked to find 8C3 (sometimes called "8 choose 3"). This is a fraction. In the numerator, we start with 8 and count down 3 numbers. In the denominator, we start with 3 and count all the way down to 1.
your answer is 56
