Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\sqrt{-x+4} = x - 4 ( square both sides )

- x  4 = (x - 4)² ← expand

- x + 4 = x² - 8x + 16 ( subtract - x + 4 from both sides )

0 = x² - 7x + 12 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 3)(x - 4) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions

x = 3 : \sqrt{-3+4} = \sqrt{1} = 1

right side = 3 - 4 = - 1

left side ≠ right side ⇒ extraneous solution

x = 4 : \sqrt{-4+4} = 0 and right side = 4 - 4 = 0

left side = right side ⇒ x = 4 is the solution

How do you do this? please help me

Answer:

f = 10, g = 4.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of ABCE = 60 cm²

Area of ABCD = 48 cm²

So,

Area of ADE = 60-48

=> 12 cm²

Area of ADE = \frac{1}{2} (Base)(Height)

<u><em>Where Area = 12 cm², Base = 4 cm</em></u>

12 = \frac{1}{2}(4)(Height)

Height = 12-2

Height = 10 cm

Where Height is AD

So, AD = 10 cm

Also, <u><em>AD is parallel and equal to BC</em></u>(f)<u><em></em></u>

So,

f = 10 cm

<u><em>Now, Finding g</em></u>

Area of ABCD = Base * Height

<u><em>Where Area = 48 cm², Base = 10 cm</em></u>

48 = 10 * Height

Height = 48/10

Height = 4.8 cm

Whereas, Height is g

So, g = 4.8 cm
