Length = 13 = (x + 3)

Width = 14 = (x + 4)

x2 + 7x + 12 = area of the rectangle

can be factored into

(x + 3)(x + 4)

Let L = one of the factors (x + 3)

Let W = the other factor (x + 4)

If x = 10 then

(10 + 3) = 13 = L

(10 + 4) = 14 = W

Checking this can be checked a couple of ways

Plug x = 10 into the original equation

x2 + 7x + 12

102 + 7(10) 12 = 100 + 70 + 12 = 182 = Area

Multiplty the factors

L x W = 13 x 14 = 182 = Area

I hope you find this useful if you have any questions please send me a message.

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of both segments together, convert the lengths into one unit measure. Convert 500 mm  into centimeters by dividing it by 10. 500/10 = 50 cm. Now add 30 + 50 = 80 cm. The segment is 80 cm long.

A tent forms an equilateral triangular prism, with both triangular faces exposed. each side of the triangular face has a length
Soloha48 [4]
Given:
Equilateral Triangular Prism
Each side of the triangular face has a length of 196cm
The tent is 250cm long

I have attached an image of the tent. Since the height of the tent is also the height of the triangle, I will solve for the height of the triangle using Pythagorean theorem.

I divided the equilateral triangle into 2 right triangle. The height then becomes the long leg of the triangle. The hypotenuse is 196cm and the short leg is 98cm, half of one side of the triangle.

a² + b² = c²
a² = c² - b²
a² = (196cm)² - (98cm)²
a² = 38,416cm² - 9,604cm²
a² = 28,812cm²
a = √28,812cm² 
a = 169.74cm

The height of the tent is 169.74 centimeters.
