Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
8x-2y=48, replace y with 4, 8x-2(4)=48, multiply, 8x-8=48, add 8 to both sides to remove the -8, 8x=56 and finally divide by 8 to remove 8 from x, x=7.

Answer:
1.) x = 14.96ft
2.) The shorter leg is 6 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) a^2 + b^2 = c^2
- a and b = legs of the triangle
- c = hypotenuse the longest side
15ft^2 + x^2 = (2x +1)^2
- 225 = 2x^2 + 1 - x^2
- 225 = x^2 + 1
- 225 - 1 = x^2 +1 - 1
- √224 = √x^2
- x = 14.9662...
2.) Longer leg a = x+2, shorter leg b = x, Hyp. c= 2x-2
Equation:
Solve:
- (x+2)(x+2) + x^2 = (2x-2)(2x-2)
- x^2 + 4x + 4 + x^2 = 4x^2 - 8x +4
- 2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 4x^2 - 8x +4
- 2x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4x^2 +8x - 4 = 4x^2 - 4x^2 - 8x + 8x + 4 - 4
- -2x^2 + 12x = 0
- 2x (-x + 6) = 0
Answers:
- 2x = 0
- -x + 6 = 0
- <u>x=0 -or- x=6</u>
<u>Since x cannot equal 0 due to the known length of the triangle needs to be more than 0 the answer for x equals 0.</u>
<u>B=6</u>
Check:
- A = x + 2: A= 6 +2 = 8
- B= 6
- C = 2x -2: C= 2(6) -2 = 10
8^2 + 6^2 = 10^2
