4x+8=7.2+5x

Subtract 4x from both sides:
8=7.2+x

Subtract 7.2 from both sides:
0.8=x

x=0.8

4x+8=7.2+5x
subtract 7.2 from 8 and you get .8
subtract 5x-4x and you get 1x
therefore your answer is...
.8=x

A 10-ft vertical post casts a 14-inch shadow at the same time a nearby cell phone tower cast a 119-ft shadow. How tall is the ce

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using proportions, by a rule of three.

A 10-ft post casts a 14-inch shadow.

Each feet has 12 inches, which means that a post with 10 feet will cast a 14/12 = 1.167 ft shadow. How tall is the cell-phone tower with a 119-feet shadow?

10 feet post - 1.167 ft shadow

x feet tower - 119 feet shadow

Applying cross multiplication:

$1.167x = 10*119$

$x = \frac{1190}{1.167}$

$x = 1020$

The cellphone towers height is 1020 ft.

Write the sentence as an equation.

bearhunter [10]

The solution to a given word problem by writing it as an equation is k = 253/232

<h3>Expressing word problems in mathematical forms:</h3>

The process of expressing word problems in mathematical forms takes a logical and chronological approach while taking the variables and arithmetic operations given into consideration.

From the given information, to express the word problem in mathematical form, we have:

253 = 232 × k
253 = 232k

Making k the subject of the equation, we have:

k = 253/232

What is the vertex of (x) = –16x² + 64x + 80.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k - the vertex form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (h, k)

$f(x) = -16x^2+ 64x + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(x^2- 4x) + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(\underline {x^2-2\cdot2x\cdot2+2^2}-2^2) + 80\\\\f(x) = -16\big[(x-2)^2-4\big] + 80\\\\f(x) = -16(x-2)^2+64 + 80\\\\\bold{f(x)=-16(x-2)^2+124\quad\implies\quad h=2\,,\quad k=124}$

<u>The vertex is </u><u>(2, 124)</u>
