The sides of a right triangle are (x-5) (x+2) (x+3). solve for x. Can someone pls help me on this problem

x = 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest side , the hypotenuse = x + 3 because the lengths of the sides  are positive.

So, by Pythagoras:

(x + 3)^2 = (x - 5)^2 + (x + 2)^2

x^2 + 6x + 9 = x^2 - 10x + 25 + x^2 + 4x + 4

0 = 2x^2 - x^2 - 10x + 4x - 6x + 29 - 9

x^2 - 12x + 20 = 0

(x - 10)(x - 2) = 0

x = 2, 10.

x cannot be 2 because that would make one side =  2- 5 = -3 so the answer is x = 10.

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.

step-by-step explanation:

descending order means to order the polynomials from the term with the largest exponent to the term with the smallest exponent.  

therefore, the correct answer is d.
