Answer:
B x = sqrt(41)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the large triangle is isosceles, the smaller triangles on the right side and left side are congruent right triangles.
The base of each smaller right triangle is 4 units long (8/2 = 4).
The vertical leg is 5.
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + 5^2 = x^2
16 + 25 = x^2
x^2 = 41
x = sqrt(41)
Answer: B x = sqrt(41)
The answer to the question above is x=-4.5
Answer:
<u>150</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
So I will shorten Eric, and Bob's names as E, and B.
So the equations are this
B-E = B+E - 240, E as Eric, and B as Bob, and this E+B=9(E-B)
Move the variables and you get
-2E =- 240
Just divide them both by -2
and E=120
So when we know the value of E we can just plug it into the 1st question
120+B=9B+1080
Moves the Variables and numbers to the other side
8B=1200
1200/8= 150
B=150
There is Bob's weight
Let b= length and a=width
Area= a*b and the problem said b=2a+3 (the length is 3ft more than double the width)
Replace b into Area formula:
Area= a*(2a+3) and we know that Area=77ft from the problem, so:
77=2a^2+3a now order and equal to zero:
2a^2+3a=77 now solve this with quadratic formula and you will get so values for a: -7ft and 5.5ft as you know the dimensions could not be negative so the correct answer for "a" side is 5.5ft, for getting the b side you haeve to replace a=5.5 into b=2a+3 and you will get b=2*5.5+3= 14ft.
Finished.
B. Cannot have 2 y points on the same x point. Confirm with the vertical line test.
