Answer:

D. X=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the order of operations to solve this problem.

First, combine like terms.

7x-5x=2x

Our equation is now 2x-3=x+4

Now, add 3 to both sides.

Our equation is now 2x=x+7

Subtract x from both sides.

x=7

The answer is D. X=7

The dimensions of a rectangle can be given by x+7 and x+2. If the area of the rectangle is 66 square inches, what are the dimens

Nadusha1986 [10]

to solve for the dimensions (x+7)(x+2)=66,

we can first use the foiling method to simplify the left side.

x^2 + 2x + 7x + 14 = 66

x^2 + 9x + 14 = 66

now, subtract 66 from both sides.

x^2 + 9x - 52 = 0

now, split this into two parentheses.

(x + 13)(x - 4)

since the root of -13 would give you negative values, x=4. This means that the dimensions of the rectangle are 11 and 6.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The careers that use Pythagoras theorem are mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of squares of the two sides of right angled triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

Let a, b and c be the sides of a right triangle where c is the length of the hypotenuse.Then

$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$

Pythagoras theorem is used in daily life situations.

A surveyor looks through a telescope toward a measuring stick a fixed distance away, so that the telescope's line of sight and the measuring stick form a right angle.

It is also used to calculate the steepness of slopes and mountains.
