Answer:
The sides are 30 ft, 40 ft and 50 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the triangle are as follows x - 4 , x + 6 and 2x - 18 . The hypotenuse should be 2x - 18 . The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right angle triangle.
Using Pythagoras theorem the length of the sides can be found.
a² + b² = c²
(x - 4)² + (x + 6)² = (2x - 18)²
(x - 4)(x - 4) + (x + 6)(x + 6) = (2x - 18)(2x - 18)
x²- 4x - 4x + 16 + x² + 6x + 6x + 36 = 4x² - 36x - 36x + 324
2x² - 8x + 12x + 16 + 36 = 4x² - 72x + 324
2x² + 4x + 52 = 4x² - 72x + 324
2x² - 4x² + 4x + 72x + 52 - 324 = 0
-2x² + 76x - 272 = 0
2x² - 76x + 272 = 0
divide through by 2
x² - 38x + 136 = 0
find the number you can multiply to give you 136 and add to give you - 38. The number are - 34 and - 4.
x² - 4x - 34x + 136 = 0
x(x - 4) - 34(x - 4) = 0
(x - 4)(x - 34 ) = 0
x = 4 or 34
we can only use 34 since using 4 will result to negative number.
x - 4 = 34 - 4 = 30 ft
x + 6 = 34 + 6 = 40 ft
2x - 18 = 68 - 18 = 50 ft
Answer:
HI
Step-by-step explanation:
2(3x-1) >=4x-6
6x-2>=4x-6
6x-4x>= -6+2
2x>=-4
x>=-2
You can see after simplification, the valve of x can be any number greater than or equal to -2. i.e -5 and -3 can not be in the solution set. the first choice can be dismissed, the fact the variable O could be any number that may not satisfy the solution. Therefore 0-1 is the answer, any thing between 0 & 1 including 0 and one satisfy the solution set
Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
3 x + 43 = 100
Subtract 43 from both sides:
3 x + (43 - 43) = 100 - 43
43 - 43 = 0:
3 x = 100 - 43
100 - 43 = 57:
3 x = 57
Divide both sides of 3 x = 57 by 3:
(3 x)/3 = 57/3
3/3 = 1:
x = 57/3
The gcd of 57 and 3 is 3, so 57/3 = (3×19)/(3×1) = 3/3×19 = 19:
Answer: x = 19
