Answer:

The length of this rectangle is 6 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x.

x • (x+2) = 48

x^2+2x=48

x^2+2x-48=0

x^2 - 6x + 8x - 48

x(x-6) 8(x-6)

(x+8)(x-6)

x=-8,6

A car needs fixing and Abe can fix it for $70 per hour with a $130 part, but Gabe can fix it for $80 an hour with a $40 part.How
patriot [66]

Answer:

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Abe's charge  =   Gabe's charge

$130+($70/hr)h = $40+($80/hr)h

Then 130 + 70h = 40 + 80h, or

           90           =   10h, or h = 90/10 = 9

When 9 hours have passed, the amount charged by each person will be temporarily equal.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 1 centimeter longer than one side and 4 centimeters longer than three times the other side
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 25cm

Opposite = 24cm

Adjacent = 7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent:

  • The opposite with a
  • The adjacent with b
  • The hypotenuse with c

Given that:

c = 1 + a

c = 4 + 3b

Required

Solve for a, b and c

c = c

So, we have:

1 + a = 4 + 3b

Subtract 1 from both sides

a = 4 -1 + 3b

a = 3 + 3b

Apply Pythagoras Theorem

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Substitute 3 + 3b for a and 4 + 3b for c

(4 + 3b)^2 = (3 + 3b)^2 + b^2

Open brackets

16 + 12b+12b+9b^2 = 9 + 9b+9b+9b^2 +b^2

16 + 24b+9b^2 = 9 + 18b+10b^2

Collect Like Terms

10b^2 - 9b^2 + 18b - 24b + 9 - 16 = 0

b^2 - 6b -7 = 0

Expand

b^2 +b-7b-7=0

Factorize:

b(b+1)-7(b+1) =0

(b-7)(b+1) = 0

Split:

b - 7 = 0\ or\ b+1=0

b = 7\ or\ b=-1

But the adjacent of a triangle can't have a negative measurement.

So:

b = 7

Recall that:

c = 4 + 3b

a = 3 + 3b

Substitute 7 for b in the above expressions

c = 4 + 3 * 7

c = 4 + 21

c = 25

a = 3 + 3 * 7

a = 3 + 21

a = 24

Hence, the dimensions of the triangle are:

Hypotenuse = 25cm

Opposite = 24cm

Adjacent = 7cm
