(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) = (|x| + 9 ) + (-6) =
|x| + 9 - 6 = |x| + 3
Answer is |x| + 3
It is right but what's the full question
Answer:
30 + 6x inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required number be x
If the length of the triangle for the pool table is the twice the sum of 5 and a number
L = 2(5+x)
L = 10+2x
Since the triangle is quadilateral, this means that all sides are equal
Perimeter = 3L
Perimeter = 3(10+2x)
Perimeter = 30+6x
Hence the perimeter, in inches, of the triangle is 30 + 6x inches
In a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle the side opposite the hypotenuse is 1/2 the hypotenuse and which will be the shorter side. Read this over a couple of times till you realize that (x + 12)/2 is the shortest side.
[(x + 12) / 2]^2 + x^2 = (x + 12)^2 subtract [(x + 12)/2]^2 from both sides.
x^2 = (x +12)^2 - [ (x +12)/2]^2
x^2 = (x + 12)^2 [ 1 - (1/2)^2] You were given this as a question in school? It seems awfully hard.
x^2 = (x + 12)^2 [3/4]
4x^2 = 3*(x^2 + 24x + 144)
4x^2 = 3x^2 + 72x + 432
x^2 - 72x - 432 = 0 This is a quadratic, do you know what they are?
The solution to this comes to x = 77.56
I don't think I made a mistake, but it is sure possible.Check the numbers and my method.
