The cable should be 50 feet.
If you draw the picture, you will see that you have a right triangle.
Let's just use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse (or cable).
30^2 + 40^2 = c^2
2500 = c^2
50 = c

Answer:
1. x=6
2. x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
1.

2.

<u>Written Explanation: </u>
1.
-2x(3x+9)=-54
-6x-`8=54 (Distributive property)
Add 18 to both sides
-6x=-36
Divide both sides by -6 (negative divided by a negative equals a positive)
x=6
2.
2(3x+4)-3x=35
6x+8-3x=35 (distributive property)
3x+8=35 (combine Iike terms and then subtract them 6x-3x=3x)
Subtract 8 from both sides
3x=27
Divide both sides by 3
x=9
the answer you're choosing is correct
