Answer:

C. 28 = (2x - 1)(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

There is a rectangular swimming pool.

Width of swimming pool is x

Length is  one less than twice the width

Area of the swimming pool is  28 sq ft.

To Find : Equation could be used to model the area of the swimming pool.

Solution:

Since we are given that Length is one less than twice the width.

And width is x (given)

So, length = 2x-1

Area of the swimming pool is  28 sq ft.

Now ,

Formula of area of rectangle : Length*Width

⇒28= (2x-1)(x)

So,  equation used to model the area of the swimming pool: 28= (2x-1)(x)

Hence Option c is correct.

Answer:

15.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to find the length of the missing side

Mathematically, we can use Pythagoras’ theorem

The theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Let the missing side be x

18 is the side that faces right angle and this is the hypotenuse

Thus, we have ;

x^2 + 9^2 = 18^2

x^2 = 324 - 81

x^2 = 243

x = √(243)

x = 15.6 in

Solve for x<br><br> x-4<br> — = 5<br> y+2
yulyashka [42]

I think the question is wrong!

It must be

x-4

___= 5

x+2

Answer: x - 4= 5x + 10

or,-10 -4 = 5x - x

or, -14=4x

or,-14/4= x

Therefore, x = -14/4
