Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract initial amount (300) and final (150). from there you get 150 dollars that was lost. We know that every step you 5 dollars so then divide 150 and 5 to get 30. So the distance was 30 steps.
Find the side length:
Side = 68/4 = 17
Now use Pythagorean theorem:
Diagonal = sqrt(17^2 + 17^2)
Diagonal = sqrt(289 + 289)
Diagonal = sqrt(578)
Diagonal = 24 feet
The answer is B. 24 feet
Since all the sides add up to 10x+2, that means that 10x-2-<side1>-<side2>=<side3>. Plugging it in, we have 10x-2-5x-(2x+9)=side3, and 5x-2-(2x+9)=side3, then expanding it to 5x-2-2x-9=3x-11=side3
