Answer:

7√3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use pythagoreans theorem to solve this

Since, we know one side, and the hypotenuse, we can solve for the other side.

Pythagoreans theorem: a²+b²=c²

Where a and b are two sides, and c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite of the right angle)

In this triangle, 7 is the side, and 14 is the hypotenuse.

I will plug in the values into pythagoreans theorem, and then simplify:

$a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2} \\\\7^{2} +x^{2} =14^{2} \\\\49+x^{2} =196\\\\x^{2} =147\\\\x=\sqrt{147} \\\\x=\sqrt{49*3 }\\\\ x=\sqrt{7^{2} *3 }\\\\x=7\sqrt{3}$

So x = 7√3

Answer:

(-5, 0) ∪ (5, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

I find a graph convenient for this purpose. (See below)

When you want to find where a function is increasing or decreasing, you want to look at the sign of the derivative. Here, the derivative is ...

f'(x) = 4x^3 -100x = 4x(x^2 -25) = 4x(x +5)(x -5)

This has zeros at x=-5, x=0, and x=5. The sign of the derivative will be positive when 0 or 2 factors have negative signs. The signs change at the zeros. So, the intervals of f' having a positive sign are (-5, 0) and (5, ∞).
