Answer:
5.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relationship between the various lengths is ...
cd² = ac² +ad²
cd² = (2.4 m)² + (1.8 m)² = 9.00 m²
cd = √(9.00 m²) = 3.0 m
Since cd = cb and ab = ac+cb, we have ...
ab = 2.4 m + 3.0 m = 5.4 m

You may recognize this as a 3-4-5 right triangle with a scale factor of 0.6. We are asked for the sum of the lengths of the "4" and "5" legs, which is ...
0.6·(4+5) = 5.4
Answer:
p = -2/5 or 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
|5 − 3p| + 9 = 13p + 8
|5 − 3p| = 13p − 1
If 5 − 3p is positive:
5 − 3p = 13p − 1
6 = 16p
p = 3/8
If 5 − 3p is negative:
-(5 − 3p) = 13p − 1
-5 + 3p = 13p − 1
-4 = 10p
p = -2/5
Alternatively, we can square both sides of the equation:
(5 − 3p)² = (13p − 1)²
25 − 30p + 9p² = 169p² − 26p + 1
0 = 160p² + 4p − 24
0 = 40p² + p − 6
0 = (5p + 2) (8p − 3)
p = -2/5 or 3/8
Yo sup??
This question can be solved by applying the properties of similar triangles
the triangle with sides 5x and 20 is similar to the triangle with sides 45 and 36
therefore we can say
5x/45=20/36
x=5 units
Hope this helps
The value of x is -3, or x= -3
480 + 192 = 672 students total
16 + 12 = 28 classrooms total
672/28 = 24 students per room
24 * 12 = 288 students that need to be in school B
288 - 192 = 96 students who have to transfer
