Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 4x
b = x + 2
c = 3x + 4
Solution
(4x)^2 + (x + 2)^2 = (3x + 4)^3 Remove all the brackets.
16x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Collect like terms on the left
17x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Subtract the terms on the right
8x^2 - 20x - 12 = 0
This factors into
(4x - 12)(2x + 1)
There are 2 answers
4x - 12 = 0
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
or
2x + 1 = 0
2x = - 1
x = - 1/2
You have to look at x = -1/2 carefully. The problem is that 4x = 4*(-1/2) = - 2 which is not possible in Euclidean Geometry.
So the only answer is x = 3
How you would solve it is by 8 multiplied by 4.
The formula B*H
So the answer is 32cm squared.
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
So convert to improper fracitons (improper=x/y where x>y and the current one is mixed where it is in t s/f form) so
40 and 4/5=(40 times 5)/5 and 4/5=200/5 and 4/5=204/5
50 and 7/8=(50 times 8)/8 and 7/8=400/8 and 7/8=407/8
area=legnth times width
legnth =407/8
width=204/5
multiply 407/8 and 204/5
407/8 times 204/5=(407 times 204)/(8 times 5)=83028/40=2075.7 square feet
the answer is 2075.7 ft^2 of seed
