It could be anything they are both variables.
The value of square root 86 is between 9 and 9.5
The ratio of the shortest sides is 12/5. Multiplying the other two sides of the smaller triangle by that ratio gives 15 and 18, so the ratios of all sides are the same. The triangles are similar.

The largest/smallest scale factor is 12/5 = 2.4.
Answer:
x = 1/2 , x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation;
169x² - 42.25
Find:
Solution of equation using square root
Computation:
169x² - 42.25
We know that 13² = 169 and 6.5² = 42.25
So,
[13x]² - [6.5]²
a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)
So,
[13x]² - [6.5]² = [13x + 6.5][13x - 6.5]
So,
13x + 6.5 = 0 , 13x - 6.5 = 0
x = 6.5 / 13 , x = -6.5 / 13
x = 1/2 , x = -1/2
I know a would be 40ft for Rachael and 50ft for Clare but I’m not completely sure about b
