Let the width be x ft
the length will be (x+14) ft
hypotenuse is 34 ft
given that our triangle is right triangle, using Pythagorean theorem?
c^2=a^2+b^2
substituting our values in the formula we get:
34^2=x^2+(x+14)^2
1,156=x^2+x^2+28x+196
simplifying this we get
0=2x^2+28x-960
solving the quadratic equation we get:
x=16 or x=-30
therefore the width is 16 ft and the length is 16+14=30

PLEASE HELP ME IS DUE TMR
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

p = 8000 + 2(6000)

20000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Profit in 1988 = 6000

Profit in 2003 = 8000 more Than double the profit made in 1998

Hence profit in 2003 (p) can be expressed as :

p = 8000 + 2(6000)

Hence profit in 2003

p = 8000 + 12000

p = 20,000

I got stuck on this question.<br> Use long division to solve
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

  5x² +19x +76 +310/(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is straightforward. Find the quotient term, multiply it by the divisor and subtract from the dividend to get the new dividend. Repeat until the dividend is a constant (lower-degree than the divisor).

The tricky part with this one is realizing that there is no x-term in the original dividend, so that term needs to be added with a 0 coefficient. The rather large remainder is also unexpected, but that's the way this problem unfolds.

__

Unlike numerical long division, polynomial long division is simplified by the fact that the quotient term is the ratio of the highest-degree terms of the dividend and divisor. Here, the first quotient term is (5x^3)/(x) = 5x^2.
