Answer:
The answer is D x(9 root y^2
Answer:
x = 0.88 OR x = -6.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the quadratic equation:
+ 6x - 6 = 0
Applying the quadratic formula to determine the solutions, we have:
x = (-b ±
) / 2a
where; a = 1, b = 6 and c = -6
x = ( -6 ±
) / 2
= ( -6 ±
) / 2
= (-6 ±
) / 2
x = (-6 ± 7.75) / 2
So that,
x = (-6 + 7.75) / 2 OR x = (-6 - 7.75) / 2
x =
OR 
x = 0.88 OR -6.88
Thus, the solutions are: x = 0.88 OR x = -6.88
The longest side of the smaller triangle (24) is twice the length of its shortest side (12), so we expect the longest side of the larger triangle (x) to be twice the length of its shortest side (16)
... x = 2×16 = 32 . . . . corresponds to selection C.
