x-3 and x+5 we can't do anything with so next
5(x-3)=5x-15
2(x+5)=2x+10
5x-15+2=5x-13
(2x+10-9)=2x+1
(5x-13)-3(2x+1)
-3(2x+1)=-6x-3
5x-13-6x-3=-x-16
4(-x-16)=-4x-64
the answer is -4x-64
You need the Law of Cosines here and you use it when you have 2 sides and an enclosed angle. The side across from the angle is the one we are looking for. The correct way to express the Law using what we have is the last choice above. Side RT is the unknown, and it is across from the angle that is enclosed between the 2 other sides.
For this case we have the following conversion of units:
Therefore, we must apply this conversion for the apartment area.
We have then:
Answer:
The area of the apartment in square meters is given by:

Answer:
Look below
Step-by-step explanation:
Average means the middle of two numbers.
If the larger number is exactly one more or an odd number more than the smaller, it is possible for a half point to occur.
Answer:
<h3><u>Part (a)</u></h3>
From inspection of the diagram, the pattern is:
Step 1: 1² + 1
Step 2: 2² + 2
Step 3: 3² + 3
Let x = step number
Let y = total number of squares
Therefore, the equation that represents the relationship is:
y = x² + x
<h3><u>Part (b)</u></h3>
<u />
x² relates to the large square made up of small squares (top part of the image of each step)
x relates to the rectangle of small squares (bottom part of the image of each step)
y is the total number of small squares in the image of each step.
