Answer:
15 in, 36 in, 39 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells us that for short side x, the relation is ...
(2x +9)² = (2x +6)² +x²
4x² +36x +81 = 4x² +24x +36 +x²
x² -12x -45 = 0 . . . . . subtract the left-side expression
(x -15)(x +3) = 0 . . . . factor
x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . the positive value of x that makes a factor zero
The side lengths of the triangle are 15 inches, 36 inches, and 39 inches.
Answer:
= 12 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a fraction equal to
30 miles ÷ 2.5 hours
We want a unit rate where
1 is in the denominator,
so we divide top and bottom by 2.5
30 miles ÷ 2.5
2.5 hours ÷ 2.5
=
12 miles
1 hour
=
12 miles
hour
= 12 miles per hour
