Answer:
x = -1
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c²
x² + (2x + 2)² = (2x + 3)²
Since these are quantities, you'll have to make them into quadratic equations.
(2x + 2)(2x + 2) = 4x² + 4x + 4x + 4
(2x + 3)(2x + 3) = 4x² + 6x + 6x + 9
x² + 4x² + 4x + 4x + 4 = 4x² + 6x + 6x + 9
Combine like terms
5x² + 8x + 4 = 4x² + 12x + 9
Move one side to set the equation equal to 0
x² - 4x - 5 = 0
Solve
x² - 5x + x - 5 = 0
x(x - 5) + 1(x - 5) = 0
(x + 1)(x - 5) = 0
x = -1, 5

Answer:
9/40
Step-by-step explanation:
- Write down the percent divided by 100 like this:
22.5/100
- Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:
- As we have 1 digit after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10, or, simply shift 1 decimal place to the right. So,
(22.5*10)(100*10)= 225/1000
- Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(225,1000) = 25.
225 ÷ 25/ 1000÷25 = 9/40

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4.8 or about 5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem, you must first multiply the 4 bases × 90 feet to get how much feet he runs in 1 home run. 4 × 90= 360 feet. Then you must multiply 360 feet × 70 homeruns, this will give you how many feet he ran in 70 homeruns. Your answer will be 25,200 feet. Now, there are 5,280 feet in <em>one</em> mile, so you must divide 25,200 by 5,280. Using a calculator, my answer was 4.7727272727. I then rounded it up to 4.8 miles, or about 5 miles.
