Answer:

The porch is 17 ft by 17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square is

P = 4s where s is the side length

P = 4( 3x+2)

P = 12x+8

We know P = 14x-2

14x-2 = 12x+8

Subtract 12x from each side

14x-2 -12x = 12x+8-12x

2x -2 = 8

Add 2 to each side

2x-2 +2 = 8+2

2x= 10

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 10/2

x = 5

The side  is 3x+2

                 3*5+2

                  15+2

                   17

The porch is 17 ft by 17 ft

Help geometry bisecting angles
dusya [7]

Since the angles are bisecting < RSU = < UST

substitution----- 4x+16=9x-9

subtract 4x from both sides----- 16=5x-9

add 9 to both sides-----25=5x

divide by 5 on both sides------ 5=x

The value of x is 5

substitute the value of x in both expressions

1st expression: 4x+16

substitute the value of x------ 4(5)+16= 20+16=36

2nd expression: 9x-9

substitute the value of x-----9(5)-9=45-9=36

< RST= <RSU+<UST

<RSU=36 degrees

<UST= 36 degrees

------------------------------------you have calculated both above-------------------------------------------

m<RST= 36 + 36=72 degrees

What is the measure of A? And B
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

A = 72°

B = 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

5y - 3 = 3y + 27

5y - 3y = 27 + 3

2y = 30

y = 30/2

y = 15

A = 5y - 3

A = 5(15) - 3

A = 75 - 3

A = 72°

A + B = 180°

72° + B = 180°

B = 180° - 72°

B = 108°

Hi ! How to solve this question?
tester [92]

You should actually have

-x^2-4x-10=-(x^2+4x+10)=-(x^2+4x+4+6)=-((x+2)^2+6)=-(x+2)^2-6

Now, remember that x^2 is always non-negative, so (x+2)^2\ge0 for any value of x. This means -(x+2)^2\le0 for any x, and so

-(x+2)^2-6\le0-6=-6

i.e. f(x) is at most -6, and hence negative for all x.
