Answer:1 1/14
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-18/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of unknown side be x
So, hypotenuse = 2x + 1
By pythagorean theorem ie , a² = b² + c²
(2x + 1)² = x² + 15²
4x² + 1 + 4x = x² + 225
3x² + 4x -224
(3x +28)(x-8)
x = -9.33 , 8
Since, length can't be negative
x = 8
∴Unknown side length = 8 m
Length of hypotenuse = 2 x 8 + 1 = 17 m
Hope it helps now.
You combine like terms which are -10x and 7x and 1 and 37. Then it becomes -3x=36. x would equal to 36/-3, which is -12.
