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

900/9= 100
9/9= 1
17-9=8
8/9 = 0.8888
101.888888
or rounded 101.89
Answer:
x=10, y=12.
Step-by-step explanation:
You are making all sides of the triangle smaller by a scale factor of 2/3, because 9*2/3=6. For x, we can do 2/3*15, which equals 10. For y, we can do 2/3*18, equalling 12.
Answer:
the constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other. Once you know the constant of proportionality you can find an equation representing the directly proportional relationship between x and y, namely y=kx, with your specific k.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 80
Write down all the values and cross out until you get to the middle, since there are 2 values, find the mean, which would be 80
