Answer:

(1) 1 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can solve by isolating the variable.

<h3>Solve</h3>

3(x - 4)² = 27
(x - 4)² = 9
√(x - 4)² = √9
(x - 4) = ± 3
x = 4 ± 3

There are two solutions, 1 and 7.

The answer is option 1: x = 7, x = 1.

Sarah hopes to be 5 feet tall by her next birthday. Right now, she is 148 centimeters tall. About how many more centimeters does

Alla [95]

Answer:

4.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to remind the conversion factor between feet and cm. We know that:

1 foot = 12 inches

1 inches = 2.54 cm

So,

$1 ft = 12 \cdot 2.54 =30.48 cm$

In this problem, Sarah's height right now is

h = 148 cm

She wants to be 5 feet tall by her next birthday: it means that her height should be

$h'=5 ft \cdot 30.48 =152.4 cm$

Therefore, she needs to grow by:

$h'-h=152.4-148=4.4 cm$

So, she needs to grow 4.4 cm more in order to be 5 feet tall.
