Answer:
3 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Right side segments are proportional to left side segments:
5/6 = x/4
x = 4·5/6 = 3 1/3 . . . . . multiply by 4
using pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(12x)^2 + (16x)^2 = 10^2
square each term
144x^2 + 256x^2 = 100
combine like terms
400 x^2 = 100
divide by 400 on each side
x^2 = 1/4
take the square root on each side
x = 1/2
Answer: x=1/2
Answer:
6x + 26 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the garden is a rectangular shape, we have four sides, where two sides are 2x + 6 feet and two sides are x + 7 feet. To find the perimeter, we add up the lengths of all four sides.
2x + 6 + 2x + 6 + x + 7 + x + 7
or
2(2x + 6) + 2(x + 7)
6x + 26
