Answer:
X=20
Y=85
Step-by-step explanation:
6x-25=4x+15
2x=40
x=20
6(20)-25
120-25
95
360-190
170
2y=170
y=85
A scalene triangle is a triangle that has 3 sides that are all different lengths.
Let these letters represent the problem:
a = 8.7
b = side 2
c = side 3
P = 54.6
To find the perimeter, we just need to add all the sides [ P = a + b + c ]
So, put what we have in the formula above.
54.6 = 8.7 + b + c

6 foot makes 4.5 foot shadow
1 foot makes=4.5/6
so 50 foot =4.5/6*50 = tree makes 37.5 foot shadow
Answer: x" = 5.69
Step-by-step explanation:
The graphic solution is attached.
Verifying the solution:
Existence condition: x > 0
2x - 4 = √x + 5
√x =2x - 4 - 5
√x =2x - 9 (²)
x = (2x - 9)²
x = 4x² - 36x + 81
4x² - 36x - x + 81 = 0
4x² - 37x + 81 = 0
Δ = -37² - 4.4.81 = 1369 - 1296 = 73
x = 37 ±√73/8
x' = 3.55
x" = 5.69
checking:
2*3.55 - 4 = 3.1
√3.55 + 5 = 6.88 Its not the same ∴ 3.55 is not a solution
2*5.69 - 4 = 7.39
√5.69 + 5 = 7.39 ∴ it's the only solution
