The hypotenuse would be square root of 41
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify both sides of the equation.
2x−1−(−x + 3)=6−2x
(Distribute the Negative Sign)
2x−1 + −1(−x + 3)=6−2x
2x + −1 + −1(−x) + (−1)(3)=6−2x
2x + −1 + x + −3=6−2x
2x + −1 + x + −3=6 + −2x
(Combine Like Terms)
(2x + x) + (−1 + −3)=−2x+6
3x + −4=−2x + 6
3x−4=−2x + 6
Add 2x to both sides.
3x−4 + 2x=−2x + 6 + 2x
5x−4=6
Add 4 to both sides.
5x−4 + 4=6 + 4
5x=10
Divide both sides by 5.
5x/5=10/5
x=2
Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x
(12 + x) (14 + x) = 288
x^2 + 26x + 168 = 288
x^2 + 26x - 120 = 0
(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0
x=-30, x =4
since 4 is positive
the dimensions increased by 4 feet
check the answer
12+4 = 16
14 +4 = 18
18*16 =288
