∆ABC similar to ∆CBD

DB/AC = CB/AB

$\frac{x}{7.5} = \frac{7.5}{x + 3} \\ x(x + 3) = {7.5}^{2} = { (\frac{15}{2}) }^{2} \\ {x}^{2} + 3x = \frac{225}{4} \\ 4 {x}^{2} + 12x = 225 \\ 4 {x}^{2} + 12x + 9 = 216 \\ {(2x + 3)}^{2} = 216 \\ 2x + 3 = 6 \sqrt{6} \\ x = - 1.5 + 3 \sqrt{6}$

approximately 6.1485

Find the distance between the points (-3, 11) and (5, 5). 10 2 2

yanalaym [24]

Use the distance formula to find the distance between two points.

$d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$d= \sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(11-5)^2} \\ d - \sqrt{-8^2+6^2} \\ d=\sqrt{64+36} \\ d = \sqrt{100} \\\\ \boxed{d=10}$

X²- 12x + a = (x-b)² Find the Value of a and value of b

maxonik [38]

Answer:

a = 36 , b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

expand the right side using FOIL and compare coefficients with like terms on left side.

(x - b)²

= x² - 2bx + b² , compare to x² - 12x + a , then

- 2b = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

b = 6

and a = b² = 6² = 36
