Let the width be x ft
the length will be (x+14) ft
hypotenuse is 34 ft
given that our triangle is right triangle, using Pythagorean theorem?
c^2=a^2+b^2
substituting our values in the formula we get:
34^2=x^2+(x+14)^2
1,156=x^2+x^2+28x+196
simplifying this we get
0=2x^2+28x-960
solving the quadratic equation we get:
x=16 or x=-30
therefore the width is 16 ft and the length is 16+14=30
I’m pretty sure it’s c if not then a
Plug in 35 for c then solve 9/5(35)+32
equal 95
Answer:
solve simultaneously
start by labeling them equation 1 and 2 then choose whether you want to make x or y the subject from knew of the equations
