X = 6.

The angle bisector theorem tells us that the ratio of the lengths of the line segments on the side the bisector intersects is the same as the ratio of the lengths of the sides adjacent to the intersected side. So using the theorem and the diagram, we can create this equation, and then solve for x.
(4x+1)/15 = 5/3
15*(4x+1)/15 = 15*5/3
4x+1 = 5*5
4x+1 = 25
4x+1-1 = 25-1
4x = 24
4x/4 = 24/4
x = 6

Answer: Area = x² + 6x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x width

Area = (x+2)(x+4)

Area = (x)(x) + (x)(4) + (2)(x) + (2)(4)

Area = x² + 4x + 2x + 8

Area = x² + 6x + 8

The distance s that an object falls is directly proportional to the square of the time t of the fall. If an object falls 16 feet
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: if S is the distance, the fact that the distance is proportional to the square of the time means that S(t) = a*t^{2} where a is a constant of proportionality, with units of \frac{feet}{s^{2} }.

We know that S(1) = 16 feet = a*1, then a = 16\frac{feet}{s^{2} }

then S(2) = 16*4 feet = 64.

and if we want to know in how much time te objet will fall 400feet, then S(t₀) = 400 feet = 16*t₀^{2}

so t₀ = \sqrt{400/16} = 5s.
