The base of the tent is 72 across the whole way and the hypotenuse is 45
so
to find the length of the stick call it x
half 72 to reduce it to the right hand side triangle
45²-36²=x²
x²=729
x=27 inches<span />
If you add the two terms on the right, you will get 5^14. 14 is your answer.
11. 5x^2-30=0
+30 to both sides
5x^2=30
÷5 both sides
x^2=6
square root both sides
x= +square root 6 ,- square root 6
12. 4x^2+10=26
-10 both sides
4x^2=16
÷4 both sides
x^2=4
square root both sides
x=+2,-2
13. a=72yrd^2
l=2w
w=?
a=l×w
72=2w×w
72=2w^2
÷2 both sides
36=w^2
square root both sides
w=+6,-6
a measurement can't be - so w=6
Plug into l=2w
l=2×6
l=12
w=6
first and second part put 0.75, then multiply 0.75 by 2 to get 1.50, then write in the third part 1 and 1/2
hope this helps
For company a it would be at the 8th hour and they would be 210 and for company b it would be at the 7th hour
