X= square root of 10x-24
FrozenT [24]
√10x-24 = x


Step by step solution :

STEP
1
:
Isolate the square root on the left hand side

Radical already isolated
√10x-24 = x


STEP
2
:
Eliminate the radical on the left hand side

Raise both sides to the second power
(√10x-24)2 = (x)2

After squaring
10x-24 = x2


STEP
3
:
Solve the quadratic equation

Rearranged equation
x2 - 10x + 24 = 0

This equation has two rational roots:
{x1, x2}={6, 4}


STEP
4
:
Check that the first solution is correct

Original equation
√10x-24 = x

Plug in 6 for x
√10•(6)-24 = (6)

Simplify
√36 = 6
Solution checks !!
Solution is:
x = 6

STEP
5
:
Check that the second solution is correct

Original equation
√10x-24 = x

Plug in 4 for x
√10•(4)-24 = (4)

Simplify
√16 = 4
Solution checks !!
Solution is:
x = 4

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

7 units  

Step-by-step explanation:

I plotted your points to form the polygon in the diagram below.

The vertical side joins the points (0 ,3) and (0, -4).

The vertical distance between them is

3 - (-4) = 3 + 4 = 7

The length of the vertical side is 7 units.
