Answer:
<h3>
x = 2</h3><h3 />
Step-by-step explanation:
use Pythagorean theorem:
a² + b² = c²
where a = x
b = 8/2 = 4
c = √20
plugin values into the formula:
x² + 4² = (√20)²
x² + 16 = 20
x² = 20 - 16
x = √4
x = 2
This breaks into two inequalities:
2x - 3 > 6
and
-2x + 3 > 6
------------------------
2x - 3 > 6
Add 3 to both sides:
2x > 9
Divide 2 to both sides:
x > 4.5
-----------------------
-2x + 3 > 6
Subtract 3 to both sides:
-2x > 3
Divide -2 to both sides:
x < -1.5
