by using Pythagoras theorem,

third side will be either 8^2+5^2=sqrt(64+25)=sqrt(89)=9.43 or

8^2-5^2=sqrt(64-25)=sqrt(39)=6.24

the difference is=9.43-6.24=3.19inches    i think this is it i may have messed up

Kate and Jean paint a house together in 6 days. If they work alone, Kate takes 5 fewer days than Jean would take to do the same
navik [9.2K]
X = number of days it would take Kate to paint the house by herself. .
<span>x+5 = number of days it would take Jean to paint the house by herself.</span>
<span>Together, they paint the house in 6 days: </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x+5) = 1/6 </span>
<span>Multiply both sides by 6x(x+5) </span>
<span>6(x+5) + 6x = x(x+5) </span>
<span>12x + 30 = x^2 + 5x </span>
<span>x^2 − 7x − 30 = 0 
</span>therefore the answer is A.

A rectangle has a length of 3x-5 and a width of 2x+9.
Montano1993 [528]

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 3x - 5

w = 2x + 9

perimeter = 2l + 2w = 2(3x - 5) + 2(2x + 9) =

= 6x - 10 + 4x + 18 = 10x + 8

area = l×w = (3x - 5)(2x + 9) = 6x² + 27x - 10x - 45 =

= 6x² + 17x - 45
