Answer:

The legs are both of length 4√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of one of the two equal legs be x. Then, by the Pythagorean Theorem, x^2 + x^2 = 8^2, or

2x^2 = 64, or x^2 = 32 = 2(16)

Solving for x, x = 4√2. The legs are both of length 4√2.

the length of a sandbox is three feet longer than it’s width. Write the expression that would represent the area of the sandbox.

Rashid [163]

Part A : D.)

Part B : Length of the sandbox is 10 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Perimeter = 29 ft

We need to find the equation for the perimeter and also the length of the sandbox.

Solution,

Let the width of the sandbox be 'w'.

Now as per question said;

The length of the sandbox is 1 foot longer than twice the width of the sandbox.

So we can say that;

Length =

Now we know that the perimeter is equal to the sum of twice of length and width.

framing in equation form, we get;

Perimeter =

we have given the perimeter, so on substituting the value, we get;

Hence The equation used to find the width is .

Now we solve for 'w'.

Applying distributive property, we get;

Subtracting both side by '2' we get

Dividing both side by 6 we get;

Width of the sandbox = 4.5 ft

Length of the sandbox =

Hence Length of the sandbox is 10 feet.

At what value of x does graph of the following function f(x) have a vertical asymptote? F(x)= 1/x+3

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = $\frac{1}{x+3}$

The denominator of f(x) cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined.

Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be and if the numerator is non zero for this value then it is a vertical asymptote.

x + 3 = 0 → x = - 3 is the vertical asymptote
