A piece of green rope is being used to make a border around the outside of a sculpture that is in the shape of an equilateral tr

iangle. One side of the equilateral triangle has a length of 3x + 3. Give TWO equivalent expressions that can be used to represent the length of the rope that is used to border all 3 sides.

Answer:

The equivalent expressions are;

9x + 9

and

9(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we should understand that an equilateral triangle has all of its sides equal

So if one side is 3x+ 3, the other sides too measures same

Therefore, the length of the rope represents the perimeter of the triangle

This is obtainable by adding all the side lengths together

This will be;

3x + 3 + 3x + 3 + 3x + 3 = 9x + 9

This is also same as 9(x + 1)

Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 4x^2=x^3+2x?
irina [24]
Next time, please share the answer choices.
Starting from scratch, it's possible to find the roots:

<span>4x^2=x^3+2x should be rearranged in descending order by powers of x:

x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x = 0.  Factoring out x:  </span>x(x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0

Clearly, one root is 0.  We must now find the roots of (x^2 - 4x + 2):

Here we could learn a lot by graphing.  The graph of y = x^2 - 4x + 2 never touches the x-axis, which tells us that (x^2 - 4x + 2) = 0 has no real roots other than x=0.  You could also apply the quadratic formula here; if you do, you'll find that the discriminant is negative, meaning that you have two complex, unequal roots.

Given: circle k(O), diameter US, measure of arc RU=50, measure of arc UT=30
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

angle RUS = 65 degrees

angle STU = 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) find angle RUS

Given arc RU = 50 degrees, so angle RSU = 50/2 = 25 degrees

Since US is the diameter,

angle URS is a right-angle.

Consider triangle RUS,

sum of angles of a triangle = 25+90+RUS = 180  

solve for

RUS = 180 - 25 - 90 = 65 degrees.

(b) Find STU

All diameters span a right angle at the circumference,

since we're given US is a diameter, this means that

angle STU is a right angle.

Benjamin started her walk from the front door of her ground floor apartment. She walked 6 meters to the corner of the building a
notsponge [240]

Answer:

<u>4 meters.</u> 

Step-by-step explanation:

Benjamin has walked two legs of a right triangle, so you can connect her two movements with a line if you were sketching the situation.. The displacement is the objects overall change in position in relation to its origin, so in your case, Benjamin's apartment. While the total distance adds up regardless of her position. 

So, the total distance Benjamin walked is 10m + 6m = 16m 

Her displacement can be found by your best friends, the Pythagorean Theorem: 10m ^2 + 6m ^2 = delta x^2 (or displacement squared).. giving you a displacement of 11.66, or 12 m.

The difference between the distance she walked and her displacement is 4 meters. 

I hope this helps. If you have any more questions, please feel free to post them and someone will be able to help you, whether it's myself or others. Please leave a like, rating, and if possible, Brainliest. Have a great day!

The half-life of chromium−51 is 27.8 days. How much of a 7.6−oz sample of chromium−51 will remain after 139 days?
In-s [12.5K]
Ending Amount = Beginning Amount / 2^n
where "n" is the number of half-lives
n = 139 / 27.8 = 5 half-lives
Ending Amount = 7.6 oz / 2^5
Ending Amount = 7.6 oz / 32
Ending Amount = .2375 ounces
