Answer:

2(3x−5)(4)−3(x+1)

Distribute:

=24x+−40+(−3)(x)+(−3)(1)

=24x+−40+−3x+−3

Combine Like Terms:

=24x+−40+−3x+−3

=(24x+−3x)+(−40+−3)

=21x+−43

Answer:

=21x−43

The area of a right triangle is given by the expression:

lorasvet [3.4K]

The expression that models the length of the second leg of the triangle is 2x - 3.

Recall:

The area of a triangle = $\frac{1}{2} bh$

Given:

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} (6x^2 - 7x - 3)$

Length of one of the legs = 3x + 1

Therefore, it means that multiplying both legs should give us:

$6x^2 - 7x - 3$

To find the expression that models the other leg, divide $6x^2 - 7x - 3$ by 3x + 1:

Thus:

$\frac{6x^2 - 7x - 3}{3x - 1}$

Factorize the numerator

$\frac{6x^2 - 2x - 9x - 3}{3x - 1}\\\\\frac{2x(3x - 1) - 3(3x - 1)}{3x - 1}\\\\\frac{(2x- 3)(3x - 1)}{3x - 1}$

Simplify

$\frac{(2x- 3)(3x - 1)}{3x - 1} = 2x- 3$

Therefore, the expression that models the length of the second leg of the triangle is 2x - 3.
