Mathematics
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Side\ 3 = 6x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Perimeter = 17x - 5

Side\ 1 = 3x + 5

Side\ 2 = 8x - 3

Required

Determine the length of the third side

The perimeter of a triangle is calculated as thus:

Perimeter = Side\ 1 + Side\ 2 + Side\ 3

Substitute values for Perimeter, Side 1 and Side 2

17x - 5 = 3x + 5 + 8x - 3 + Side\ 3

Collect Like Terms

17x - 5 = 3x + 8x + 5 - 3 + Side\ 3

17x - 5 = 11x + 2 + Side\ 3

Solve for Side 3

Side\ 3 = 17x - 11x - 5 - 2

Side\ 3 = 6x - 7

<em>Hence, the length of the third side is 6x - 7 units</em>

The perimeter of a​ standard-sized rectangular rug is 4040 ft. the length is 22 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions.
Nataly_w [17]
L = w+22

2(l+w) = 4040
2(w+22+w) = 4040
2w + 22 = 4040/2 = 2020
2w = 2020-22 = 1998
w = 999ft

l = w+22 = 999+22 = 1021ft
w = 999 ft

R = sec(θ) − 2cos(θ), where -π/2 &lt; θ &lt; π/2
Alex

Answer:

  y = (x/(1-x))√(1-x²)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be translated to rectangular coordinates by using the relationships between polar and rectangular coordinates:

  x = r·cos(θ)

  y = r·sin(θ)

  x² +y² = r²

__

  r = sec(θ) -2cos(θ)

  r·cos(θ) = 1 -2cos(θ)² . . . . . . . . multiply by cos(θ)

  r²·r·cos(θ) = r² -2r²·cos(θ)² . . . multiply by r²

  (x² +y²)x = x² +y² -2x² . . . . . . . substitute rectangular relations

  x²(x +1) = y²(1 -x) . . . . . . . . . . . subtract xy²-x², factor

  y² = x²(1 +x)/(1 -x) = x²(1 -x²)/(1 -x)² . . . . multiply by (1-x)/(1-x)

  \boxed{y=\dfrac{x\sqrt{1-x^2}}{1-x}}

__

The attached graph shows the equivalence of the polar and rectangular forms.
