Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 4x
b = x + 2
c = 3x + 4
Solution
(4x)^2 + (x + 2)^2 = (3x + 4)^3 Remove all the brackets.
16x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Collect like terms on the left
17x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Subtract the terms on the right
8x^2 - 20x - 12 = 0
This factors into
(4x - 12)(2x + 1)
There are 2 answers
4x - 12 = 0
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
or
2x + 1 = 0
2x = - 1
x = - 1/2
You have to look at x = -1/2 carefully. The problem is that 4x = 4*(-1/2) = - 2 which is not possible in Euclidean Geometry.
So the only answer is x = 3
The number of all divisors of 6 <span>
6 multiples of the number 18 we find one of
so the answer is 18

3 divided by 10 is 0.3
2 divided by 5 is 0.4.
They are not equivalent.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2 = x-3
<em>Adding 3 to both sides</em>
2+3 = x
5 = x
<u><em>OR </em></u>
x = 5
Answer:
$7.85
Step-by-step explanation:
2 pizzas at 11.99=23.98
4 soft drinks at 1.85=$7.40
23.98+7.40=31.38
31.38/4=7.845
Each friend pays $7.845, or $7.85 .........
