Answer:
x is equal to 2.5 and -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(x + 1)² - 3 = -51
-4(x² + 2x + 1) - 3 = -51
-4x² - 8x -3 - 3 = -51
-4x² - 8x - 6 = -51
-4x² - 8x = -45
-4(x^2 + 2x) = -45
-4(x^2 + 2x + 1) = -49
-4(x + 1)² = -49
(x + 1)² = 49/4
x + 1 = ± √(49/4)
x + 1 = ± 7/2
x = -1 ± 3.5
x = 2.5, -4.5
Answer:
length = 18 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = width
L = w+7
Area = l*w
198 = (w+7) (w)
Distribute
198 = w^2 +7w
Subtract 198 from each side
0 = w^2 +7w -198
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to -198 and add to 7
18* -11 = -198
18+-11 = 7
0=(w+18) (w-11)
Using the zero product property
w+18 =0 w-11=0
w= -18 w=11
We cannot have negative width so w=11
We want the length
l = w+7
l = 11+7 = 18
8x - 7 = 3x + 9
8x - 3x = 9 + 7
5x = 16
x = 16/5 = 3 1/5

Answer:
No, it is not a right triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the triangle was a right triangle, then the Pythagorean Theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Let's test it on this triangle:
13^2 + 14^2 = 365, or c^2. If this is a right triangle, c should equal 15.
However, sqrt(365) = 19.1, which is not 15. So, the triangle is not a right triangle.
