You labeled the triangle wrong sides 'a' and 'b' are supposed to be the sides that make the right angle. the other side is called the hypotenuse which is the longest side which you should have labeled 'c'
so Pythagorean theorem says
a^2+b^2=c^2
so
(2x+1)^2+(11x+5)^2=(12x+1)^2
distribute
(4x^2+4x+1)+(121x^2+110x+25)=(144x^2+24x+1)
add like terms
125x^2+114x+26=144x^2+24x+1
subtract 125x^2 from both sides
114x+26=19x^2+24x+1
subtract 114x from both sides
26=19x^2-90x+1
subtract 26 from both sides
0=19x^2-90-25
factor
(x-5)(19x+5)=0
therefor x-5=0 and/or 19x+5=0
so
x-5=0 add 5 to both sides
x=5
19x+5=0
subtract 5 from both sides
19x=-5
divide both sides by 19
x=-5/19
since side legnths can't be negative, we can cross this solution out
so x=5
subtitute
1+2x
1+2(5)
1+10=11
side a=11
11x+5
11(5)+5
55+5=60
side b=60
12x+1
12(5)+1
60+1=60
side c=61
add them all up
side a+b+c=11+60+61=132=total legnth
Answer:
Part One: $187
Part Two: 11a + 5.5k
Step-by-step explanation:
Part One:
a = 9 (how many adult tickets)
k = 16 (how many kid tickets)
($11 × a) + ($5.50 × k) = total cost
($11 × 9) + ($5.50 × 16)
($99) + ($88) = $187 = total cost
Part Two:
11a + 5.5k
11 is how much the adult ticket costs, you multiply a or the amount of adult tickets in order to get the total cost for adults.
5.5 is how much the kid ticket costs, you multiply k or the amount of kid tickets in order to get the total cost for kids.
you add 11a + 5.5k or the total cost for adults and the total cost for kids to get the total cost.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding 1 to both sides of the equation.
Factoring the left side of the equation.
Taking the square root of both sides of the equation.
Subtracting 1 from both sides of the equation.
You need to use the distributive property. So you take the -9 from outside the parentheses and multiply itself by the numbers inside.
Midpoint formula = (-9 + 6) / 2 = -3/2
