The answer is x^2 - 4x +4. What I did was set it up as a ratio, FOILing out the two denominators on the left to get (x-5)?/(x^2 - 7x + 10) = (x+1)/1. Next I cross-multiplied to get (x-5)? = (x+1)(x^2 - 7x + 10). Next I FOILed out the right side to get (x-5)? = x^3 - 9x^2 + 24x - 20. Now I have an equation just like 3x=9, for example, where I divide both sides by 3 to find x. Instead, since we have polynomials, we have to use long division. Divide the x^3 term by x-5 and you'll get it.

Bernice estimated that 69% of 242 is 168. Is her estimate reasonable?

ycow [4]

Her estimate is not reasonable.

Since she estimated 69%, you could do either of these options. You could...
A. Divide 242 (or .5) to show how much half off would be, then compare her estimate with half of 242 (121). OR...
B. Simply divide 242 by 69% (.69) and compaor her estimate to the exact amount (166.98).

I hope this helps!

Say if you had a Right triangle with sides being 12a 15b and the last side unkown how would i solve it?

balandron [24]

By Pythagorean theorem,
a^2+b^2=c^2
c is the longest side of the triangle
a and b are the remaining sides

PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM IN 3D URGENT PLEASE PHOTO INSERTED

Andrews [41]

To find the length of the diagonal, we need to calculate the length of the base first and then use the value to calculate the diagonal since we are given the value of height of the triangle.

<h3>Pythagorean Theorem</h3>

This theorem is used to find the missing side of a right angle triangle given that we have the length of two sides.

To calculate the base of the triangle, let's use Pythagorean theorem here

$x^2 = y^2 + z^2\\x^2 = 2^2 + 3^2\\x^2 = 4 + 9 \\x^2 = 13\\x = \sqrt{13} \\x = 3.61$
