Answer:
x+1 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = Length * Width
x^2 - 6x - 7 = length * (x-7)
x^2 + x - 7x - 7 = length * ( x-7)
x*(x+1) - 7*(x+1) = length * (x-7)
(x-7)*(x+1) = length * (x-7)
x+1 = length [for (x-7) not equal 0]
The answer is 8.99 in decimal form
In exact for it In (1.838)/ In (1.07)

Pretty Sure Its B I had this question Too
Given that the triangle is a right angled triangle, to solve for x we shall use the Pythagorean theorem given by:
c^2=a^2+b^2
where:
c is the hypotenuse
a and b are the legs.
c=10
a=6
b=(x-6)
thus plugging the values in the equation and solving for x we get:
10^2=6^2+(x-6)^2
100=36+x^2-12x+36
100=x^2-12x+72
0=x^2-12x-28
factoring the above we get:
0=(x+2)(x-14)
hence
x=-2 or x=14
given that there is no negative distance then
x=14
thus the value of x is 14
If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
4x^2 + 9y^2 = 72
2x - y = 4 ... 2x - 4 = y
_________
<span>4x^2 + 9y^2 = 72
</span><span>4x^2 + 9 * (2x - 4)^2 = 72
</span>4x^2 + 9 * (4x^2 - 16x + 16) = 72
4x^2 + 36x^2 - 144x + 144 = 72
40x^2 - 144x + 144 - 72 = 0
40x^2 - 144x + 72 = 0
10x^2 - 36x + 18 = 0
5x^2 - 18x + 9 = 0
(5x - 3) * (x - 3) = 0
1. 5x - 3 = 0 ... 5x = 3 ... x = 3/5
2. x = 3
<span>1. y = 2x - 4 = 2 * 3/5 - 4 = 6/5 - 20/5 = -14/5
2. y = 2x - 4 = 2 * 3 - 4 = 6 - 4 = 2
1. (x, y) = (3/5, -14/5)
2. (x, y) = (3, 2)
The correct result would be </span>(3/5, -14/5) and <span>(3, 2).</span>
