The equations to calculate the legs are 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24, x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 and x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 100
<h3>How to determine the legs of the triangle?</h3>
The complete question is in the attached image
The given parameters are:
Area = 24
Legs = x and x + 2
The area of the triangle is calculated as:
Area = 0.5 * Base * Height
This gives
0.5 * x * (x + 2) = 24
So, we have:
0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24
Divide through by 0.5
(x)(x + 2) = 48
Expand
x^2 + 2x = 48
Subtract 48 from both side
x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0
Hence, the equations to calculate the legs are 0.5(x)(x + 2) = 24, x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 and x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 100

Answer:
10 - 2n - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of n and 2 is 2n.
Then 10 - 2n is the difference of 10 and the product of n and 2.
In conclusion, we have:
10 - 2n - 4
Answer:
These quotients are different because of what division means.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you divide you start with a total and break it into equal groups. If you started with three and broke them into groups of 1/5, that is different then starting with 1/5 and breaking into three groups.
If you had 3 cups of Chex mix and made servings of 1/5 of a cup. How many servings could you get? This is 3 divided by 1/5.
If you want to put tomatoes in 1/5 of your garden and you have 3 different tomatoes you want to plant. What fraction of the original garden will each type of tomato be in if they are evenly distributed.
Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:
1 3/4 14
------------ = --------
2 1/2 x
where x is the unknown number.
Converting the mixed numbers to improper fractions, we get:
7/4 14
------ = -----
5/2 x
Here there are two numerators and two denominators. Multiplying all four quantities by 4 will remove some of the fractions:
7 56
------ = -------
10 4x
Cross multiplying, we get:
28 x = 560, or x = 20
