Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use  the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

x^2 + (x+2)^2 = (2x-2)^2

FOIL (x+2)^2 = x^2 +2x+2x+4 = x^2 +4x+4

FOIL (2x-2)^2 = 4x^2 -4x -4x+4 = 4x^2 -8x+4

Replacing these in to the equation

x^2 +x^2 +4x+4 = 4x^2 -8x+4

Combine like terms

2x^2 +4x +4 = 4x^2 -8x +4

Subtract 4 from each side

2x^2 +4x +4-4 = 4x^2 -8x +4-4

2x^2 +4x = 4x^2 -8x

Subtract 2x^2 from each side

2x^2 -2x^2+4x = 4x^2-2x^2 -8x

4x = 2x^2 -8x

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-4x = 2x^2 -8x-4x

0 = 2x^2 -12x

Factor out a 2x

0 = 2x(x-6)

Using the zero product property

2x =0  x-6 =0

x =0  x-6+6 = 0+6

x = 0  c=6

Circle X with a radius of 6 units and circle Y with a radius of 2 units are shown. Which steps would prove the circles similar?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

See bolded below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at the attachment below. It represents circle x and y, with respect to each of their radii. In each of the options we are given, we would have to translate and dilate the circles, by a fixed scale factor -

Now the first thing one would do is translate the circles so that they share a common center point, or in other words the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle. That way when dilating circle y, it may fit into circle x as it expands.

The second point is how much this smaller circle ( circle y ) has to expand. The radius of circle y being 2, has to increase by 3 times the value to equal the radius of circle x, and hence has to dilate by a scale factor of 3 as to match circle x,

<u><em>Solution = " Translate the circles so the center of one circle rests on the edge of the other circle, and dilate circle Y by a scale factor of 3 " / Option D</em></u>

Mr. Thompson, a retiree, looks at his check register.
sukhopar [10]

As given,

Weekly rent of Mr. Thomson is = $104.92

Part A: What is Mr. Thompson's yearly rent (using 52 weeks)?

Rent for 1 week = 104.92

Rent for 52 weeks = 104.92\times52 = $5455.84

Part B: What was the average grocery expense in this time period?

Mr. Thomson purchased groceries on 2/18 for $33.45 and on 3/5 for $28.56

Hence average grocery expense is = \frac{33.45+28.56}{2}

= $31 per week or $62.01 per month

Part C: Mr. Thompson estimates his yearly expense for groceries to be:

The monthly expense for groceries is = $62.01

So yearly expense will be = 62.01\times12 = $744.12
