Answer:
6.68, 13.37, 14.95
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the legs is twice as long as the other.
b = 2a
The perimeter is 35.
35 = a + b + c
The triangle is a right triangle.
c² = a² + b²
Three equations, three variables. Start by plugging the first equation into the second and solving for c.
35 = a + 2a + c
c = 35 − 3a
Now plug this and the first equation into the Pythagorean theorem:
(35 − 3a)² = a² + (2a)²
1225 − 210a + 9a² = a² + 4a²
1225 − 210a + 4a² = 0
Solve with quadratic formula:
a = [ -(-210) ± √((-210)² − 4(4)(1225)) ] / 2(4)
a = (210 ± √24500) / 8
a ≈ 6.68 or 45.82
Since the perimeter is 35, a = 6.68. Therefore, the other sides are:
b ≈ 13.37
c ≈ 14.95
Answer:
x=11
Step-by-step explanation:
y= 1/4x
5x-8y=33
5x-8(1/4x)=33
x=11
Quadratic is the answer.......................
If Jamie's age is represented as x and given that Ana is the same age as Jamie then, Ana's age can also be represented by x. The sum of their ages is equal to,
Sum of their ages = x + x
Simplifying,
Sum of their ages = 2x
