<u>Answer:</u>

<h2>12 ft</h2>

<u>Explanation:</u>

we will use pythagoras theorem

a² + b² = c²

according to the given data we'll assume that

a = 5

c = 13

5²+b²=13²

25+b²=169

b²=169-25

b²=144

b=√144

b=12

Solve the system using elimination.<br> 3x + 5y = 55<br> 5x + 4y = 57
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

x=5, y=8. (5, 8).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=55

5x+4y=57

---------------

5(3x+5y)=5(55)

-3(5x+4y)=-3(57)

-------------------------

15x+25y=275

-15x-12y=-171

---------------------

13y=104

y=104/13

y=8

3x+5(8)=55

3x+40=55

3x=55-40

3x=15

x=15/3

x=5

Multiply and combine like terms. Then explain what you notice about the two different results. (i) (√3+√2)(√3+√2) (ii) (√3+√2)(√
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

(i) 5 + 2√6

(ii) 1 - 2√6

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) (√3+√2)(√3+√2)

⇒ √3(√3+√2) + √2(√3+√2)

or

⇒ (√3)² + (√3 × √2) + ( √2 ×√3 ) + ( √2 × √2 )

or

⇒ 3 + √6 + √6  + 2

or

⇒ 5 + 2√6

(ii) (√3+√2)(√3-√2)

⇒ √3(√3-√2) + √2(√3-√2)

or

⇒ ( √3 × √3 ) - ( √3 × √2) + ( √2 × √3 ) - ( √2 ×√2)

or

⇒ ( 3 ) - ( √6 ) + ( √6 ) - ( 2 )

or

⇒ 1 - 2√6
