By applying the Pythagorean theorem, we will find that the length of the other leg of the right triangle is 40.7 yards.
If for right triangle we define A and B as the length of the two legs, and H as the length of the hypotenuse, the Pythagorean theorem says that:
A^2 + B^2 = H^2
Here we know that:
A = 14 yd
H = 43 yd
And we want to find the other leg, then we can replace that in the equation to get:
(14yd)^2 + B^2 = (43yd)^2
B = √( (43yd)^2 - (14yd)^2) = 40.7 yd
So the other leg length is 40.7 yards.

Perimeter of square : p = 4a.....
p = 4(x + 2)
p = 4x + 8
perimeter of rectangle : p = 2(L + W)
p = 2(3x + 2 + x - 1)
p = 2(4x + 1)
p = 8x + 2
so if the perimeters are te same, lets set them equal to each other and solve for x
4x + 8 = 8x + 2
8 - 2 = 8x - 4x
6 = 4x
6/4 = x
1.5 = x
the square : p = 4x + 8.....p = 4(1.5) + 8.....p = 14 meters
the rectangle : p = 8x + 2....p = 8(1.5) + 2.....p = 14 meters
so she bought 14 meters of fencing <==
Alright - we want to start off by seeing if this number would be positive or negative. Debit means that you owe something, or that you have to pay that amount of money. If you had money to buy things with, that would be positive, but since debit means you haven’t paid something off yet, that is negative. Next, since you have 40 dollars in debt, you have -40 dollars.

Answer:
q = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x²-8x = 10 (divide both sides by -2)
x² + 4x = -5 (Apply completing the square method)
x² + 4x + (4/2)²= -5 + (4/2)²
x² + 4x + 2²= -5 + 2² (reduce left hand side using a²+2ab+b² = (a+b)² )
(x+2)² = -5 +4
(x+2)² = -1
(x+2)² + 1 = 0 (multiply both sides by -2)
(-2)(x+2)² + 1 (-2) = 0
-2[x - (-2)]² + (-2) = 0 ---> compare this with -2(x-p)² + q = 0
We can see that p = 2 and q = -2
Using the Pythagorean theorem we can solve for x.
x^2 + 6^2 = 10^2
Simplify:
x^2 + 36 = 100
Subtract 36 from both sides:
x^2 = 64
x = √64
x = 8
