3 RIGHT TRIANGLES
1 big right triangle is divided into 2 smaller ones. Medium
and small.
<span> a.How far is the spot on the beach from the parking lot? </span>
Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = x
Small triangle: long leg = x ; short leg = 18m
32/x = x/18
32*18 = x*x
576 = x²
√576 = √x²
24 = x
Parking lot to the beach is 24 meters.
<span>b. How far will he have to walk from the parking lot to get to the refreshment stand?</span>
Use Pythagorean theorem:
Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = 24 m ;
hypotenuse = ?
32²+ 24² = c²
1024 + 576 = c²
1600 = c²
√1600 = √c²
40 m = c
Parking lot to refreshment stand is 40 meters.
Answer:
The actual answer is 10.5+7.25π units²
I just took the test
So what you will need to do is subtract 2x - 3x = -x, then subtract three from both sides 8 - 3 and the answer will be -x + 5
6a+12=2(3a-8)
6a+12=6a-16
-12. -12
6a=6a-4
-6a -6a
0=-4
no solution because the equation is false.

Explanation:
If the zero is c, the factor is (x-c).
So for zeros of
−
3
,
−
1
3
,
5
, the factors are
(
x
+
3
)
(
x
+
1
3
)
(
x
−
5
)
Let's take a look at the factor
(
x
+
1
3
)
. Using the factor in this form will not result in integer coefficients because
1
3
is not an integer.
Move the
3
in front of the x and leave the
1
in place:
(
3
x
+
1
)
.
When set equal to zero and solved, both
(
x
+
1
3
)
=
0
and
(
3
x
+
1
)
=
0
result in
x
=
−
1
3
.
f
(
x
)
=
(
x
+
3
)
(
3
x
+
1
)
(
x
−
5
)
Multiply the first two factors.
f
(
x
)
=
(
3
x
2
+
10
x
+
3
)
(
x
−
5
)
Multiply/distribute again.
f
(
x
)
=

Combine like terms.
