The figure suggests that the two sub-triangle are similar, because they are both right and the angle at the top is the same.

If that is the case, we can claim that the correspondent sides are in proportion:

$6\div 9 = x \div 8$

Solving for x we have

$x = \dfrac{6\cdot 8}{9}=\dfrac{48}{9}=\dfrac{16}{3}$

Given the functions below, find g(5) + h(2). g(x) = 2x - 5 h(x) = 4x + 5

Ksju [112]

G(5) = 2(5)-5=5
h(2)=4(2)+5=13

So, g(5)+h(2)=13+5=18.

Henry's patio is in the shape of a rectangle. He said the perimeter of the patio is 48 feet . He knows that one side is 9 feet w

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

2 sides of the patio are 9ft and another 2 sides are 15ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we have to know thata rectangle has 4 sides and 2 of them are equal to each other

This is the formula to calculate perimeter

p = perimeter 48 ft

a = side a = 9 ft

b = side b

p = 2a + 2b

we replace the known values

48ft = 2*9ft + 2b

48ft = 18ft + 2b

48ft - 18ft = 2b

30 / 2 = b

15 = b

2 sides of the patio are 9ft and another 2 sides are 15ft
