Hello! the answer to this inequality is no solutions, since there are no values of x for which this can be true.
Longer leg = x + 4
Shorter leg = x
Hypotenuse = x + 8
Using Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(x + 4)^2 + x^2 = (x + 8)^2
x^2 + 8x + 16 + x^2 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 +8x = x^2 + 16x + 48
2x^2 - 8x = x^2 + 48
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0
You can complete the square from here or use the quadratic formula.
Completing the square:
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x + (-8/2)^2 = 48 + (-8/2)^2
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 48 + 16
(x - 4)(x - 4) = 64 or (x - 4)^2 = 64
x - 4 = +√64 OR x - 4 = -√64
x - 4 = +8 OR x - 4 = -8
x = 12 OR x = -4
However, you can't use negative 4 as a length because your length needs to be a positive.
So x will be 12.
Shorter leg: 12
Longer leg: 12 + 4
Hypotenuse: 12 + 8
Answer:
The answer is A, (1,2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps!
8x-4(x+1) = 0
x =1
y = 1 + 1
y = 2
(x,y) = (1,2)
2 = 1 + 1
8 x 1 - 4 x 2 = 0
Simplify
2 = 2
0 = 0
Solution = (1 , 2)
Answer:
a = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
-0.4a + 3 = 7
subtract 3 from each side
-0.4a + 3-3 = 7-3
-.4a = 4
Divide each side by -.4
-.4a/ -.4 = 4/-.4
a = - 10
