Let x be the shorter leg, then the longer is 6x+22 and the hypotenuse is 6x+23.
x² + (6x+22)² = (6x+23)²
x² + 36x² + 264x + 484 = 36x² + 276x + 529
x² - 12x - 45 = 0
(x+3)(x-15)=0
x=-3 or 15. since you can't have negative length discard-3, then the sides are 15, 112, and 113
The actual answer is 10 , 10 plus 4 is 14 and 14 divided by 2 equals 7 so the answer is 10
i hope this helped
To solve for x, we will begin by using the distributive property
6x - 2(x + 4) = 12
6x - 2x - 8 = 12
(always remember to sort your negatives!)
Add like terms
4x - 8 = 12
Add 8 to both sides
4x = 20
Divide both sides by 4
x = 5
I think u combined like terms , like 11+44 which is 55 then your answer is 55-3x or -3x+55 , im not really sure , hope this helps.
Answer:
a reasonable estimate is $1500
Step-by-step explanation:
16 + 12 is about 30
$53 is about $50
30 x 50 = 1500
