Let the length of unknown side be x
So, hypotenuse = 2x + 1
By pythagorean theorem ie , a² = b² + c²
(2x + 1)² = x² + 15²
4x² + 1 + 4x = x² + 225
3x² + 4x -224
(3x +28)(x-8)
x = -9.33 , 8
Since, length can't be negative
x = 8
∴Unknown side length = 8 m
Length of hypotenuse = 2 x 8 + 1 = 17 m
Hope it helps now.
Answer:
x = -15 or 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We can simplify |x| - 3 = 15 to |x| = 15 because we can add 3 on both sides due to -3 being outside of the absolute value bars. Next, we can say that x is either 15 or -15 because of the absolute value (|15| is equal to 15 and |-15| is also equal to 15).
4%
This is because 1 = 100%
0.4 would equal 40%
So 0.04 is 4%
