12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem:  a² + b² = c²

16² + b² = 20²

256 + b² = 400

b² = 144

b  = \sqrt{144}

b = 12

FACTOR the following quadratic expression: x^2-3x-18. Clearly show your steps OR explain your reasoning and CHECK your answer by
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The factors of x² - 3·x - 18, are;

(x - 6), (x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic expression is presented as follows;

x² - 3·x - 18

To factorize the given expression, we look for two numbers, which are the constant terms in the factors, such that the sum of the numbers is -3, while the product of the numbers is -18

By examination, we have the numbers -6, and 3, which gives;

-6 + 3 = -3

-6 × 3 = -18

Therefore, we can write;

x² - 3·x - 18 = (x - 6) × (x + 3)

Which gives;

(x - 6) × (x + 3) = x² + 3·x - 6·x - 18 = x² - 3·x - 18

Therefore, the factors of the expression, x² - 3·x - 18, are (x - 6) and (x + 3)

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST PLEASE EXPLAIN
zalisa [80]

Answer:

a. (x+5)^2 = 49

b. (x+7)^2 = (x+1)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

So the term "a number" is always going to be x. input x into the sentences. "X plus five, then squared, is forty-nine". when they do "is __", that means equal to. In the second question, seven more than x is x + 7 (the two numbers are interchangeable here). Equivalent also means equal. hope this helped :)
