Answer:

first week = m miles

second week = 6 miles less than triple the number of miles they ran the

first week.

Triple of the number of miles they ran the first week = 3 * m = 3m

Therefore = 3m - 6

Express as a trinomial (2x+8)(x-3)

Luden [163]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{(2x+8)(x-3)=2x^2+2x-24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use FOIL:}\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\(2x+8)(x-3)=(2x)(x)+(2x)(-3)+(8)(x)+(8)(-3)\\\\=2x^2-6x+8x-24\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=2x^2+(-6x+8x)-24\\\\=2x^2+2x-24$

In the figure, PQ is parallel to RS. The length of RP is 5cm; the length of PT is 30cm; the length of QT is 60cm. What is the le

rjkz [21]

The triangles PTQ and RTS are similar; so the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.

Let us denote the unknown length SQ as x.

We could make the following similarity relation;

$\begin{gathered} \frac{30}{30+5}=\frac{60}{60+x} \\ \end{gathered}$

Cross multiply to obtain;

$\begin{gathered} 30(60+x)=60(35) \\ 1800+30x=2100 \\ \text{collect like terms} \\ 30x=2100-1800 \\ 30x=300 \\ \text{divide both sides by 30} \\ \frac{30x}{30}=\frac{300}{30} \end{gathered}$

Therefore;

$x=10\operatorname{cm}$

Therefore, the answer is option A

The length of one leg of a right triangle is 3 feet more than the other leg. If the hypotenuse is 15 feet, find the length of ea

jeyben [28]

Answer:

9 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem. One of the most common Pythagorean triples is 3, 4, 5 with 3 and 4 the legs and 5 the hypoenuse. That will make 9, 12, 15 anotther trible because you are tripling the side lengths. 12-9=3 so this triangle works.
