Answer:
(x + 3) = 9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to write an equation to find the length of the rectangle
Mathematically;
Area of rectangle = length * breadth
15 3/10 = (x + 3) * 3 2/5
(x + 3) = 15 3/10 divided by 3 2/5
(x + 3) = 153/10 * 5/17
(x + 3) = 9/2
Did you notice the little box with corners marked in the angle down at the bottom ?
That angle is a right angle, and <em>this triangle is a right triangle</em> !
This piece of information is a big help. It breaks the problem wide open.
You know that in order to find the longest side of a right triangle . . .
-- Square the length of one short side.
-- Square the length of the other short side.
-- Add the two squares together.
-- Take the square root of the sum.
One short side=48. Its square = 2,304.
The other short side=48. Its square = 2,304.
Add the two squares: 2,304 + 2,304 = 4,608
The square root of the sum = √4,608 = <em><u>67.88</u></em> (rounded)
Answer:
(b - 1) (5b - 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have:
xk = v + w solve for x
divide both sides by k to isolate the variable x:
x = (v+w)/k
^^This is your answer!
Hope I helped!
