Answer:

The longest sides is 18 m long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x meters be the length of the first side.

The length of the second side = x+9 m.

The length of the third = 3x m.

Perimeter = x + 3x + x + 9 = 39

5x + 9 = 39

5x = 30

x = 6 m.

The other 2 sides are  6+9 = 15 m and 3*6 = 18 m.

Find the composition of
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

[(x + 6), (y + 1)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertices of the quadrilateral ABCD are,

A → (-5, 2)

B → (-3, 4)

C → (-2, 4)

D → (-1, 2)

By reflecting the given quadrilateral ABCD across x-axis to form the image quadrilateral A'B'C'D',

Rule for the reflection of a point across x-axis is,

(x, y) → (x , -y)

Coordinates of the image point A' will be,

A(-5, 2) → A'(-5, -2)

From the picture attached, point E is obtained by translation of point A'.

Rule for the translation of a point by h units right and k units up,

A'(x+h, y+k) → E(x', y')

By this rule,

A'(-5 + h, -2 + k) → E(1, -1)

By comparing coordinates of A' and E,

-5 + h = 1

h = 6

-2 + k = -1

k = 1

That means

Rule for the translation will be,

[(x + 6), (y + 1)]

(4x - 3) × (x + 2)=0
matrenka [14]

Hi,

AxB = 0 means A=0. or B=0

so 2 solutions :

4x-3= 0

4x=3

x = 3/4

and x+2 = 0.

x= -2

solutions are : -2 +and 3/4
