Answer:
x = 18
m = 21.2
p = 31.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the left-side length to the bottom-side length is the same for both triangles:
x/11.2 = (x +27)/28
28x = 11.2(x +27) = 11.2x +302.4 . . . . . multiply by 11.2·28
16.8x = 302.4 . . . . . . . subtract 11.2x
x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16.8
__
The length of m can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse.
x^2 +11.2^2 = m^2
m = √(324 +125.44) = √449.44 = 21.2
__
The length of p can also be found using the Pythagorean theorem. We prefer the proportion ...
p/27 = m/x
p = 27(21.2/18) = 31.8
The lengths of the unknown sides in the figure are ...
x = 18
m = 21.2
p = 31.8
Answer:
$16.25 $15.95 $15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
because a 15% tip is $3.00
If you use this equation then you say that the ground is h=0 and solve as a quadratic.
The quadratic formula is (-b±<span>√(b^2-4ac))/2a when an equation is in the form ax^2 + bx + c
So the equation you have been given would be -16t^2-15t-151 = 0
This equation has no real roots which leads me to believe it is incorrect.
This is probably where your difficulty is coming from, it's a mistake.
The equation is formed from S=ut+(1/2)at^2+(So) where (So) is the initial height and S is the height that you want to find.
In this case you want S = 0.
If the initial height is +151 and the initial velocity and acceleration are downwards (negative) and the initial velocity (u) is -15 and the initial acceleration is -32 then you get the equation S=-15t-16t^2+151
Solving this using the quadratic formula gives you t = 2.64 or t = -3.58
Obviously -3.58s can't be the answer so you're left with 2.64 seconds.
Hope this makes sense.

To convert mixed number fractions you can:
→ Convert them into improper fractions
→ Give the fractions common denominators
→ Subtract the two numerators, keeping the denominator
→ If necessary, simplify and convert your fraction back to a mixed number fraction
Example: 3 5/6 - 1 2/3
→ 23/6 - 5/3
→ 23/6 - 10/6
→ 13/6 = 2 1/6
∴ 3 5/6 - 1 2/3 = 13/6 OR 2 1/6
