Simplified answer is 5/8. This is how it has been solved:

1. x - 1/4 = 3/8;
2. x = 1/4 + 3/8;
3. x = 2/8 + 3/8;
4. x = 5/8;

What is the length of BC in the right triangle below?

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$hypotenuse^2=leg^2+leg^2$

We have

$leg=AC=36,\ leg=AB=15, hypotenuse=BC$

Substitute:

$BC^2=36^2+15^2\\\\BC^2=1296+225\\\\BC^2=1521\to BC=\sqrt{1521}\\\\BC=39$

Solve the equation by completing the square.Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. X^2–x–7=0

lesya [120]

NOTE: $\left(x-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2=x^2-x+\dfrac{1}{4}$

$x^2-x-7=0 \\ \\ \underbrace{x^2-x+\frac{1}{4}}_{\left(x-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}-7\dfrac{1}{4}=0 \\ \\ \\ \left(x-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=7\frac{1}{4}=\frac{29}{4} \qquad /\sqrt{}\\ \\ \left|x-\frac{1}{2}\right|=\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{2} \\ \\ x_1=\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{2} \approx -2.19 \\ \\ x_2=\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{2} \approx 3.19$
