Note that c is the hypotenuse of the blue triangle, and that the Pyth. Thm. states that (length of one leg)^2 + (length of the other leg)^2 = (hyp)^2.
Therefore, (hyp)^2 = c^2 = [2sqrt(x^2+3x)]^2 + 3^2, or
= 4(x^2+3x) + 9, or
= 4x^2 + 12x + 9 = (2x+3)^2
Taking the sqrt of both sides, c = plus or minus (2x+3). Eliminate -(2x+3) because the middle term of the square of this would be negative, in conflict with the given +12x.
c=2x+3 is the correct answer.
2 and 4 are both correct statements.
Answer:
A)
Step-by-step explanation:
the solution of a squared equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)
in our case
a = 1
b = 8
c = 22
x = (-8 ± sqrt(64 - 88))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(-24))/2 =
= (-8 ± sqrt(4×-6))/2 = (-8 ± 2×sqrt(-6))/2 =
= -4 ± sqrt(-6) = -4 ± i×sqrt(6)
Answer:
I was at the store getting groceries I saw that there was a sell on bags of candy The original price was 4.00 dollars The sale is 1/2 off a bag of candy what is the new price. The answer is 2.00 dollars.
