Answer:

Length= 17 feet

Width= 29 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Original</u>

Length= (2x +1) ft

Width= (3x -3) ft

<u>New deck</u>

Length= (2x +1) ft

Width

= (3x -3 +x) ft

= (4x -3) ft

Area of deck= length ×width

493= (2x +1)(4x -3)

<em>Expand</em><em>:</em>

493= 2x(4x) +2x(-3) +1(4x) +1(-3)

493= 8x² -6x +4x -3

493= 8x² -2x -3

8x² -2x -3 -493= 0

8x² -2x -496= 0

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>throughout</em><em>:</em>

4x² -x -248= 0

<em>Factorise</em><em>:</em>

(x -8)(4x +31)= 0

x -8=0 or 4x +31= 0

x= 8 or 4x= -31 (reject)

Length of new deck

= 2(8) +1

= 16 +1

= 17 ft

Width of new deck

= 4(8) -3

= 32 -3

= 29 ft

Ques
natulia [17]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Pythagorean triple the square on the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

A

longest side = 10 ⇒ 10² = 100

6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100

A is a Pythagorean triple

B

longest side = 17 ⇒ 17² = 289

8² + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289

B is a Pythagorean triple

C

longest side = 9 ⇒ 9² = 81

5² + 8² = 25 + 64 = 89

89 ≠ 81

C is not a Pythagorean triple

D

longest side = 13 ⇒ 13² = 169

5² + 12² = 25 + 144 = 169

D is a Pythagorean triple

Find equation to the given value of the curve x=t^5+1, y=t^6+t, and t=-1. please help I keep getting y=-1.4x and it is incorrect
irakobra [83]
Well for the function of x we have x=t^5+1 and we know t= -1

So you plug in -1 instead of the t and you will get x=(-1)^5+1
Now just resolve that equation to get the value of x

x = (-1)^5+1 = -1+1 = 0 So x=0

Do the same with y and you’ll get y=2
