Answer:

Hypotenuse: 41 meters, Long leg: 40 meters, Short leg: 9 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement, we have the following information about the lengths of the right triangle:

Hypotenuse

3\cdot x + 14

Long leg

3\cdot x + 13

Short leg

x

By the Pythagoric Theorem, we have the following expression:

(3\cdot x + 14)^{2} = x^{2} + (3\cdot x + 13)^{2} (1)

9\cdot x^{2}+84\cdot x + 196 = x^{2} + 9\cdot x^{2} + 78\cdot x + 169

9\cdot x^{2} + 84\cdot x + 196 = 10\cdot x^{2} + 78\cdot x +169

x^{2} -6\cdot x -27 = 0

(x-9)\cdot (x+3) = 0

As length is a positive variable by nature, then the only possible solution is x = 9. Lastly, the side lengths of the right triangle are:

Hypotenuse: 41 meters, Long leg: 40 meters, Short leg: 9 meters.

Suppose f(x)= x^2 fins the graph of f(x-1)
Gennadij [26K]
F(x)=x2,

g(x)=f(3x)=(3x)2=9x2

Now to graph y=9x2. This is a parabola (U-shape), vertex at (0, 0), symmetric aroung y  axis. When x=1/3 or -1/3, then y=1.

So, try to draw the graph.
