The cable should be 50 feet.
If you draw the picture, you will see that you have a right triangle.
Let's just use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse (or cable).
30^2 + 40^2 = c^2
2500 = c^2
50 = c
Answer:
-(x-8)(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
-x^2+2x+48
-(x^2-2x-48)
-(x-8)(x+6)
The trick is to find two numbers that when they multiply, you get the third term, which in this case, is -48. And when you add those two numbers, you get the second term, which is -2 in this case. The two numbers in this case are -8 and 6.
To solve this, we simply need to remember our rules about order of operations. They tell us that first, we should distribute the 2 with the rest of the parentheses.
5-2(x-3)
5-2x+6
Next, we should combine our like-terms.
5-2x+6
11-2x
Seeing as we do not know the value of the variable, the simplest form of the expression is 11-2x.
