X - a leg  (x > 6);
x - 6 - a leg;
x + 1 - a <span>hypotenuse;</span>
Use the Pythagorean theorem
(x+1)^2=x^2+(x-6)^2

Use:(a\pm b)^2=a^2\pm2ab+b^2

x^2+2x+1=x^2+x^2-12x+36\ \ \ |-x^2-2x-1\\\\x^2-14x+35=0\ \ \ |-35\\\\x^2-14x=-35\\\\x^2-2\cdot x\cdot7=-35\ \ \ |+7^2\\\\x^2-2\cdot x\cdot7+7^2=-35+7^2\\\\(x-7)^2=14\iff x-7=\pm\sqrt{14}\ \ \ |+7\\\\x=7-\sqrt{14} < 6;\ x=7+\sqrt{14}

x=7+\sqrt{14}\\x-6=1+\sqrt{14}\\x+1=8+\sqrt{14}

The perimeter:

7+\sqrt{14}+1+\sqrt{14}+8+\sqrt{14}=16+3\sqrt{14}

Can someone help me with this pls?
madam [21]
Please bare with me bc I’m bad at wording things, change it as you please!

It’s a minimum. I know that the function is a minimum because whenever there is a - in the beginning of the equation it flips your parabola over the x axis and my parabola becomes concave down. When my parabola is concave up I have a minimum, vise versa is a maximum. Because there isn’t a -, my parabola is concave up meaning the function has a minimum

Write the answer in scientific notation and in standard form.Round to the appropriate number of significant digits.
Aleks [24]

Hey there, the answer is C.

After multiplying, you will get .37278. However, it's asking you to consider the significant figure of 3 so you'll have to round it to .373. C has that only option

Multiply the sum of X and Y by 5 and divide the result by the product of two and a​
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

\frac{5(x+y)}{2a} or you could write it as 5(x+Y) ÷ 2a

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is a question that kind of uses spoken words rather than numbers and it involves PEMDAS (if you haven't gotten to PEMDAS yet, don't worry about it, it's ok, it's easy). PEMDAS is simply an acronym for Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract. Its the order in wwhich you do more complicaterd math problems.

Lets break apart the question:

- We have the sum of x and y, we just write that as x+y

- We have that sum multiplied by 5, we have the sum from the step above, now we'll multiply that by 5. 5(x+y) parenthesis means multiply what is outside with what is inside.

- We have the product (multiply) of 2 and a, 2 times a = 2a.

- We divide the x, y, and 5 term with the 2, a term. Take the first part 5(x+y) and divide it by the second part 2a.
