Answer: Probably A
Step-by-step explanation: You need to use a ruler for this, because without one its impossible to get it exact
Using the ruler though, you'd measure each side of the wall and either use a ratio of 0.5in:4ft or multiply every 0.5in by 4ft.
So you always want to pull out the gcf first but since there isn't one, we can move on.
so we can make an acb chart which is multiplying the a value and the c value and find factors that of that product that will equal the b value.
a value is 2
c value is -15
b value is 7
-30 factors to equal 7 = 10, -3
10 - 3 = 7
so the factors 10 and -3 work.
so now you make 2 separate parenthesis with one of the factors and one x. and it should be set equal to 0.
(x+10)(x-3) = 0
now solve for x in each separate parenthesis.
x = -10
x = 3
those r the roots
hope this helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Any number equal to or greater than 20 is a solution. 22 would be a solution.
Answer:
x = 14
y = 4
Explanation:
Ok so, just from looking at the two triangles i can tell they're congruent right triangles. I used different colors to show which sides of the triangle correspond and are equal to each other in my attatched photo.
So the side thats equal to x is the same length as the side that's equal to y+10 on the other triangle.
So we can write the equation x = y + 10.
Using this same method, the side that's equal to x + 2 is the same length as the side that's equal to 4y on the other triangle.
So, we can write the equation 4y = x + 2.
Now we have the equations
you could rewrite to be in slope- intercept form so they're easier to graph. But a graphing calculator online would plot it just fine.
If you graph these two equations they'll intersect at the solution ( 14, 4 ). I'll include the graph in my images as well.
To check your answer, you can plug in x and y and see if the triangle sides end up being the same length. I did and it was correct.
-3/2 that's the answer idk what else to say lol.
