By the Pythagorean Theorem:

h^2=x^2+y^2

Which just means that the hypotenuse (longest side) squared is equal to the sum of the side lengths squared...in this case:

h^2=5^2+13^2

h^2=25+169

h^2=194

h=√194

h≈13.93 in (to nearest hundredth of an inch)

Mckensey is correct as shown above.

Cara's mistake was in letting c be a side length instead of the length of the hypotenuse...

Translation of the length of a rectangle is 2 feet greater than twice its width. If the perimeter is 25 feet, fine the width
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle=(length+width)×2

Let W=x, L=2x+2

25=[(2x+2)+x]×2

25=[2x+2+x]×2

Solve for x

25/2=3x+2

25/2-2=3x

25-4/2=3x

21\2=3x=7/2=x

How can i solve this<br> (x+2)(2x+3)<br> step by step please
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

2x² + 7x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this polynomial, you need to distribute/multiply, (x+2) with (2x+3).

You would first multiply (x) with 2x and 3. This would give you 2x² and 3x. You would then multiply 2 with 2x and 3. This would give you 4x and 6. You then add the like-terms, which are 3x and 4x, which gives you 7x. This would give you your final expression of 2x² +7x + 6.

(x+2)(2x+3)

2x²+ 3x + 4x + 6

2x² +7x + 6
