Answer:

Y x 3 - 3 = Y + 57

30 would be your answer

add 3 to both sides so it becomes Y x 3 = Y + 60 and 60/2=30

30 x 3 = 90-3=87

30 + 57 = 87

Hope this helps (I am twelve and I know how to do this)

Use the Quadratic Formula to solve the equation 4x^2−7=4x.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{1}{2}-\sqrt2\ or\ x=\dfrac{1}{2}+\sqrt2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{The quadratic formula of}\ ax^2+bx+c=0:\\\\x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\text{We have:}\\\\4x^2-7=4x\qquad\text{subtract}\ 4x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\4x^2-4x-7=0\\\\a=4,\ b=-4,\ c=-7\\\\b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(4)(-7)=16+112=128\\\\\sqrt{b^2-4ac}=\sqrt{128}=\sqrt{64\cdot2}=\sqrt{64}\cdot\sqrt2=8\sqrt2\\\\x=\dfrac{-(-4)\pm8\sqrt2}{(2)(4)}=\dfrac{4\pm8\sqrt2}{8}\qquad\text{simplify by 4}\\\\x=\dfrac{1\pm2\sqrt2}{2}\to x=\dfrac{1}{2}\pm\sqrt2$

Please show all work :)

I might be wrong but I think the answer would be -x+2x+6 as a simplified version because if you use the equation (x+4•x+3)-3x(x+1)=a (or any letter you choose), you will get 3x+x^2+12+4x-3x-3x^2=y. Then, you can combine like terms:
4x-2x+12=a

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below?

balandron [24]

$\bf \textit{height or altitude of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ h=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}~~ \begin{cases} s=\stackrel{length~of}{a~side}\\ \cline{1-1} s=8\sqrt{3} \end{cases}\implies h=\cfrac{8\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{3}}{2}\implies h=\cfrac{8\sqrt{3^2}}{2} \\\\\\ h=4\cdot 3\implies h=12$
