Step-by-step explanation:
Using pythagoras theorem
9^2 - 6^2 = x^2
Therefore X^2 = 81 - 36
= 45
Thus X = √45
X = 6.71
X can be from -1.6 to -1.7 or x can be from -3.3 to 3.3
By <span>(x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20) you apparently meant the following:
x+5
----------------------
x^2 + 9x + 20
and by
</span><span>(x^2-16/x-4)
x^2-16
you apparently meant ---------------
x - 4
Please use additional parentheses for clarity.
Dividing,
</span> x+5 (x-4)(x+4)
---------------------- * ---------------
x^2 + 9x + 20 x-4
Now, x^2 + 9x + 20 factors into (x+4)(x+5), so what we have now is
(x+5)(x+4)
------------------------- = 1 This is true for all x, so there are no exclusions.
(x+4)(x+5)
-29= x + (x + 1)
-29= 2x +1
-30= 2x
-15=x
The answer is -15, -14.
