Answer:
x = -1 and x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>What are the solutions of the equation (x – 3)² + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0? Use u substitution to solve.</em>
<em />
(x – 3)² + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0 -------------------------------------------------------(1)
To solve this problem, we will follow the steps below;
let u = x-3
we will replace x-3 by u in the given equation:
(x – 3)² + 2(x – 3) -8 = 0
u² + 2u -8 = 0 ----------------------------------------------------------- --------------(2)
We will now solve the above quadratic equation
find two numbers such that its product gives -8 and its sum gives 2
The two numbers are 4 and -2
That is; 4×-2 = -8 and 4+(-2) = 2
we will replace 2u by (4u -2u) in equation (2)
u² + 2u -8 = 0
u² + 4u - 2u -8 = 0
u(u+4) -2(u+4) = 0
(u+4)(u-2) = 0
Either u + 4 = 0
u = -4
or
u-2 = 0
u = 2
Either u = -4 or u = 2
But u = x-3
x = u +3
when u = -4
x = u + 3
x = -4 + 3
x=-1
when u = 2
x = u + 3
x = 2 + 3
x=5
Therefore, x = -1 and x =5

We are given an isosceles triangle.
An isosceles triangle has corresponding angles of corresponding sides same.
<em>Therefore, other angle is also of (3x+7) degrees.</em>
(5x+13) and (3x+7) makes a linear pair.
Therefore,
(5x+13) + (3x+7) = 180
5x +13 + 3x +7 = 180.
8x +20 = 180.
Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get
8x +20-20 = 180-20.
8x = 160
Dividing both sides by 8, we get
<h3>x = 20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 3rd option. </h3>

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal (^ means exponent)
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
42^2 + 42^2= c^2
1764+1764=c^2
3528=c^2
square root both sides
c= 59.39696962
round and you get 59.4 cm
