This may not be very pretty.
(2x + 5) * (2x + 5) expanded is (use foil)
F = 4x^2
O = 2x * 5 = 10x
I = 2x + 5 = 10x
L = 25
Total = 4x^2 + 20x + 25
(x + 3)(x + 3) = x^2 + 6x + 9 by the same method
(2x + 7)(2x + 7) = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Same method.
4x^2 + 20x + 25 + x^2 + 6x + 9 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49
5x^2 + 26x + 34 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Collect everything on the left.
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
x + 3 will have no meaning.
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
2x + 5 = 2*5 + 5 = 15
x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8
2x+ 7 = 2*5 +7 = 17
Check
15^2 + 8^2 = 17^2
225 + 64 = ? 289
289 = 289
a = 15 <<<<< answer
b = 8 <<<<< answer
c = 17 <<<<< answer
Answer:
53 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Circumference = pi times diameter
We are trying to find diameter so rearrange
Circumference/pi = diameter
166.5/pi = 52.998596
Approximately 53 centimeters of lace
Answer: 7/12 portion
Explanation:
Jack can paint:
1 house = 3hr
1/3 portion= 1hr
Jill can paint:
1 house = 4hr
1/4 portion = 1hr
Both of them together can paint in 1 hour:
1/3 + 1/4 = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12 portion in 1hr
Answer:
Acute angle = 30°
Obtuse angle = 150°
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1:
Let x represent the measurement of the obtuse angle
Obtuse angle = x
Acute angle = ⅕ of x = x/5
Thus:
x + x/5 = 180° (angels on a straight line)
Solve for x
(5x + x)/5 = 180
Multiply both sides by 5
5x + x = 180 × 5
6x = 900
x = 900/6
x = 150
Obtuse angle = 150°
Acute angle = x/5 = 150/5 = 30°
Method 2:
Since acute angle = ⅕ of the obtuse angle, therefore,
Obtuse angle = 5*acute angle
Let acute angle = x
Obtuse angle = 5x
Equation:
5x + x = 180° (angles on a straight line)
Solve for x
6x = 180
x = 180/6
x = 30
Acute angle = x = 30°
Obtuse angle = 5x = 5*30 = 150°
The answer is 35/64 or 0.546875 in decimal form
first we write all numerators above the least common denominator 64
1+40-6
————
64
next we solve the numerators by doing 1+40-6 to get 35/64
