Answer:
A. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle will be a right triangle when the side lengths satisfy the Pythagorean theorem: the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.
(x +1)^2 +x^2 = (√61)^2
x^2 +2x +1 +x^2 = 61 . . . eliminate parentheses
2x^2 +2x = 60 . . . . . . .subtract 1, collect terms
x^2 +x -30 = 0 . . . . . divide by 2, subtract 30
(x +6)(x -5) = 0 . . . . factor the quadratic
x = -6 or +5
The solution is x = 5.
_____
Side lengths cannot be negative. Solution values are values of x that make the factors zero. x+6=0 when x=-6, for example.
Answer:
28.27 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
circumference of a circle = πd
9π = 28.27
Let
= amount of salt (in pounds) in the tank at time
(in minutes). Then
.
Salt flows in at a rate

and flows out at a rate

where 4 quarts = 1 gallon so 13 quarts = 3.25 gallon.
Then the net rate of salt flow is given by the differential equation

which I'll solve with the integrating factor method.



Integrate both sides. By the fundamental theorem of calculus,





After 1 hour = 60 minutes, the tank will contain

pounds of salt.
Area of trapezoid = Average length of parallel lines x height
3+22=25
25/2= 12.5
12.5x6=75cm^2
