Answer: D. x=9√3; y=18
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a 30-60-90 special triangle, where we can use the rules to find the value of x and y. (For specific explanation, please look at the attachment below)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<u>X value</u>
- The shortest side of the triangle that corresponds with [x] is 9 units. This is because it is half of the larger triangle's side length.
- Using the rules, the shortest side is x, then the second short side is x√3
- Substitute value in= x√3=(9)√3=9√3
Y value
- The shortest side of the triangle that corresponds with [x] is 9 units. This is because it is half of the larger triangle's side length.
- Using the rules, the shortest side is x, then the longest side is 2x
- Substitute value in= 2x=2(9)=18

Answer is C hope this helps
Area of pool edge = Area of big rectangle - Area of the pool
Area of pool edge = Area of the pool = 40 × 60 = 2400 ft²
2400 = Area of big rectangle - 2400
Area of big rectangle = 2400 + 2400
Area of big rectangle = 4800
Length × width = 4800
From the diagram, we need the length to be [x + x] more than the length of the pool, where x is the distance from the pool edge to the patio edge.
We also need the width of the big rectangle to be [[x + x] more than the width of the pool.
Length = 60 + 2x
Width = 40 + 2x
Length × Width = [60+2x] × [40+2x]
4800 = 2400 + 120x + 80x + 4x²
0 = 4x² + 200x - 2400
0 = 4[x² + 50x - 600]
0 = x² + 50x - 600
0 = [x - 60] [x + 10]
x - 60 = 0 OR x + 10 = 0
x = 60 OR x = -10
We can only use the positive value of x since the context is length
Hence, x = 60
Answer: The answer is x=9
