Answer:
x=2;DE,EF=9,DF=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since DEF is isoceles, you can set the equations
x+7 and 2x+5 equal to each other
x+7=2x+5, now solve for x
-x=-2,
x=2, now plug in for each side
DE,EF=9
DF=3(2)-1=5
You look for certain key words. The expression "at least" means "greater than or equal to." The expression " is no more than" means "less than or equal to." A sum means an addition. A difference is a subtraction. There are many other words that you need to look out for and translate into math symbols.
<span>(14+x)^2= 25^2 +x^2
14^2 + 28x + x^2 = </span><span>25^2 +x^2
28x = 25^2 - 14^2
28x = 625 - 196
28x = 429
x = 15.32</span>
