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

Mrs. Greensmith works a PC Richards and earns $35 per week plus a 12% commission o sales. How much would she earn for the week i
n200080 [17]
Answer: $245

she makes $35 every week (her wage, i’m assuming) regardless of how many sales she makes.

in order to find out how much money she makes out of her sales, you have to multiply the percentage commission by how much her sales was: so .12x1750 = $210 from sales.

you then add up her wage and her sales money, so $35 from wage + $210 from sales = $245 total for the week

answer: $245
