Answer:
The length of a side of the flag is 7.2inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let length = x
Let hypotenuse = x+3
Using Pythagoras' Theorem:
x^2 + x^2 = (x+3)^2
x^2 + x^2 = x^2 + 6x + 9
2x^2 = x^2 + 6x + 9
×^2 - 6x - 9 = 0

x=[-(-6)+sqrt.(-6)^2-4(1)(-9)]/2(1)
×=[6+sqrt.72]/2
×=7.2inches
×=[-(-6)+sqrt.(-6)^2-4(1)(-9)]/2(1)
x=[6-sqrt.72]/2
×=-1.2(rej)
(PS. sqrt is square root)
(Correct me if i am wrong)
To ease your problem, consider "L" as you x-axis
Then the coordinate become:
A(- 4 , 3) and B(1 , 2) [you notice that just the y's changed]
This is a reflection problem.
Reflect point B across the river line "L" to get B', symmetric of B about L.
The coordinates of B'(1 , -1) [remember L is our new x-axis]
JOIN A to B' . AB' intersect L, say in H
We have to find the shortest way such that AH + HB = shortest.
But HB = HB' (symmetry about L) , then I can write instead of
AH + HB →→ AH + HB'. This is the shortest since the shortest distance between 2 points is the straight line and H is the point requiered

Answer:
744
Step-by-step explanation:
12a^2 + 4b
Plug-in:
12(8)^2 + 4(-6)
12(64) + 4(-6)
768 - 24
744
Answer:
It will not taste the same bc there is too much oj.
Step-by-step explanation:
The recipe is saying that for every 4 cups of pineapple juice you put in, you must put in 5 cups of orange juice. That means if you put 8 cups of pineapple juice, you need 10 cups of orange juice, and if you have 12 cups of pineapple juice, you need 15 cups of oj. Obviously, 15 is less than 20. You are using too much oj, and because of this, it will not taste the same.
