Answer:

1 mile 201.25 yard = 5898 foot 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that the contractor paving 1 mile 201.25 yards

We have to change this into feet and inches

We know that 1 mile = 1765 yard

So 1 mile 201.25 yard = 1765+201.25 = 1966.25 yard

Now we know that 1 yard = 3 foot

So 1966 yard = 1966×3 = 5898 foot

And 1 yard = 36 inches

So 0.25 yard = 0.25×36 = 9 inches

So 1 mile 201.25 yard = 5898 foot 9 inches

Write the equation of a line, in SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM, that is perpendicular to the given equation and passes through the given

adoni [48]

Step-by-step explanation:

slope interception formula is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

where m is m=y-y1/x-x1 in this case m=-2 because the line we are trying to find is parallel to the given one y=-2x-6 where slope k=-2

so the final equation would be

y-1=-2(x-(-4))

y-1=-2x-2*4

y=-2x-8+1=-2x-7

Suppose the lengths of two sides of a right triangle are represented by 2x and 3 (x + 1), and the longest side is 17 units. Find

densk [106]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

given the lengths of two sides of a right angle are represented by 2x and 3(x+1) and longest side is 17 units.

AB = 2x and BC = 3(x+1) and longest side AC= 17

by using Pythagoras theorem

$AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

step 2:-

The hypotenuse is longest side is AC = 17 units

(17)^2 = 4x^2 +9(X+1)^2

on simplification, we will use formula

$(a + b)^2 = a^2 +2ab+b^2$

289 = 4x^2 +9(x^2+2x+1)

$13x^2 +18x-280 = 0$

finding factors 70 X 52 = 3640

$13x^2 +70x-52x-280 = 0$

$13x^2 -52x+ 70x-280 = 0$

Taking common , we get

13x(x-4)+70(x-4)=0

x-4=0 and 13x+70=0

x=4 and $13x =-70$

x=4 and $x=\frac{-70}{13}$

we can not choose negative value so x value is 4

Final answer:- x = 4

verification:-

$AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

289 = 4(4)^2+9(4+1)^2

289 = 64 +9(25)

289=289
