Answer:
I believe this is pathgorean theorem, which I did at the beginning of alegbra last year. It is basically finding the missing side of a triangle. (Trust me some of the easiest stuff you do all year) Below are my notes from last year. I hope it helps! Good Luck!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two sides
If you know two other sides of the right triangle, it's the easiest option; all you need to do is apply the Pythagorean theorem:
a² + b² = c²
if leg a is the missing side, then transform the equation to the form when a is on one side, and take a square root:
a = √(c² - b²)
if leg b is unknown, then
b = √(c² - a²)
for hypotenuse c missing, the formula is
c = √(a² + b²)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1litres=8
x=3
x=0.375 litres
Given that the area is equal to twice the perimeter and the dimensions are:
length=4x ft, width=(x+6) ft
the perimeter will be:
P=2(L+W)
P=2(4x+(x+6))
P=2(4x+x+6)
P=2(5x+6)
P=(10x+12)
Area of the rectangle is:
A=4x(x+6)
A=4x²+24x
but:
2P=A
thus
2(10x+12)=4x²+24x
20x+24=4x²+24x
thus
4x²+4x-24=0
x²+x-6=0
x²-2x+3x-6=0
x(x-2)+3(x-2)=0
(x-2)(x+3)=0
thus the answer is:
x=-3 or x=2
thus
length=4x=4*2=8 ft
width=(x+6)=(2+6)=8 ft
