Remember that
for a right triangle

with legs a and b and hptonuse c
a²+b²=c²

given
a=x+5
b=x-3
c=9


(x+5)²+(x-3)²=9²
x²+10x+25+x²-6x+9=81
2x²+4x+34=81
2x²+4x-47=0

use quadratic formula

for 0=ax²+bx+c
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}
so
a=2
b=4
c=-47

x=\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{4^2-4(2)(-47)} }{2(2)}
x=\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{16+376} }{4}
x=\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{392} }{4}
x=\frac{-4+/- 14\sqrt{2} }{4}
x=-1+/- 3.5\sqrt{2}
x can't be negative because lengths can't be negative
so
x=-1+3.5√2
if we evaluate
x=3.94975
round
x=3.950 cm

(x-3)^2 + (x+5)^2=9^2
(x^2-6x+9) + (x^2+10x+25)=81
2x^2+4x+34=81
2x^2+4x-47=0
From here just use quadratic formula

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

  • 3x + 6 = 12; Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 3(x + 2) = 12

<u>The next step is:</u>

  • 3*x + 3*2 = 12
  • 3x + 6 = 12

This is a distributive property

Correct choice is A

The temperature falls from 0 degrees to Negative 12 and one-fourth degrees in 3 and one-half hours. Which expression finds the c
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The expression used to find the change in temperature per hour is Algebraic expression

Thus per hour; the temperature falls at the rate of - 3\dfrac{1}{2}^0

Step-by-step explanation:

A temperature falls from 0 to  - 12\dfrac{1}{4}     in     3\dfrac{1}{2} \ hours

Which expression finds the change in temperature per hour.

From the above given information;

The initial temperature is 0

The final temperature is  - 12\dfrac{1}{4}  

The change in temperature is \Delta T = T_2  -  T_1

\Delta  T = -12\dfrac{1}{4} -0

\Delta T = -12.25

Thus;

-12.25 ° = 3.5 hours

To find the change in x°   per hour; we have;

x°            = 1 hour

The expression used to find the change in temperature per hour is Algebraic expression

From above if we cross multiply ; we have;

(- 12.25° × 1 hour) = (x° × 3.5 hour)

Divide both sides by 3.5 hours; we have:

\dfrac{-12.25^0*1 }{3.5}=\dfrac{ x^0 *3.5}{3.5}

x° =  - 3.5

x° = - 3\dfrac{1}{2}

Thus per hour; the temperature falls at the rate of - 3\dfrac{1}{2}^0
