The perimeter of a quadrilateral (four-sides polygon) is 50 inches. The longest side is three times as long as the shortest side
kkurt [141]

The side lengths of quadrilateral are 21 inches; 11 inches; 11 inches; 7 inches.

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

Given, the perimeter of a quadrilateral (four-side polygon) is 50 inches.  

Let the length of shortest side be n inches.  The longest side is three times as long as the shortest side.  

That is, length of largest side = 3n inches

The other two sides are equally long and are 4 inches longer than the shortest side.  

Then, length of remaining two sides = 4 + n inches  

We have to find the length of all four sides.

Now, we know that, perimeter = 50 inches  

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow \text { Sum of all sides }=50} \\\\ {\rightarrow n+3 n+n+4+n+4=50} \\\\ {\rightarrow n+3 n+n+n=50-4-4} \\\\ {\rightarrow 6 n=42} \\\\ {\rightarrow n=7}\end{array}

So, length of sides will be,

7 \text { inches; } 3\times7=21 \text { inches; } 7+4=11 \text { inches; } 7+4=11 \text { inches. }

the length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 3 ft more than three times the length of the shorter leg. the length of the
Ulleksa [173]

with the pythagorean theorem

\begin{gathered} (4+3x)^2=x^2+(3+3x)^2 \\ 16+24x+9x^2=x^2+9+18x+9x^2 \\ 16+24x+9x^2=10x^2+18x+9 \\ 16+24x+9x^2-9=10x^2+18x+9-9 \\ 9x^2+24x+7=10x^2+18x \\ 9x^2+24x+7-18x=10x^2+18x-18x \\ 9x^2+6x+7=10x^2 \\ 9x^2+6x+7-10x^2=10x^2-10x^2 \\ -x^2+6x+7=0 \end{gathered}

using the formula of the quadratic equation

\begin{gathered} x_{1,\: 2}=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ x1=\frac{-6+\sqrt{6^2-4\left(-1\right)\cdot\:7}}{2\left(-1\right)}=-1 \\ x2=\frac{-6-\sqrt{6^2-4\left(-1\right)\cdot\:7}}{2\left(-1\right)}=7 \end{gathered}

the length cannot be negative, therefore x=7

length of the shorter leg is: 7ft

length of the longer leg is: 3+3(7)= 24ft

length of the hypotenuse is: 4+3(7)= 25ft

Tony hit 9 out of 15 pitches at baseball practice yesterday. The following day at practice 45 pitches were made. How many pitche
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

18 pitches.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming the "9 out of 15" is the fraction of pitches Tony hit at baseball practice.

Hence, Tony missed 6 out of 15 pitches.

6/15 * 45

= 6 * 3

= 18 pitches.

Hope this helped!

It is known that x1 and x2 are roots of the equation x2−8x+k=0, where 3x1+4x2=29. find k.
zysi [14]

Answer:

k = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ x² - 8x + k = 0 ⇒ has two roots x1 and x2

∵ ax² + bx + c = 0 has two roots

∴ The sum of roots = -b/a and the product of them = c/a

∵ a = 1 , b = -8 and c = k

∴ x1 + x2 = -(-8)/1 = 8

∴ x1 + x2 = 8 ⇒ (1)

∵ 3x1 + 4x2 = 29 ⇒ (2)

Multiply (1) by -4

∴ -4x1 - 4x2 = -32 ⇒ (3)

Add (2) and (3)

∴ -x1 = -3

∴ x1 = 3

By substituting value of x1 in (1)

∴ 3 + x2 = 8

∴ x2 = 5

∴ The roots are 3 and 5

∴ c/a = 3 × 5 = 15 ⇒ (a = 1)

∴ c = 15

∴ k = 15
