Answer: 12.65 ft
Pythagorean theorem is
+
= 
So,
+
= 
169 - 9 = 160
is 12.65.
Hope it helps.
If you want to solve for x, then
add 2y to both sides
x=2y+4
if want to solve for y
minus x both sides and divide by -2
x-2y=4
-2y=-x+4
y=1/2x-2
Set up ratios of height / shadow length:
8/6 = x/100
Cross multiply
6x = 800
Divide both sides by 6
X = 133.33 feet
The tower is 133.3 feet
Answer:
6x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay this is basically polynomial algebra:
1. Add the value of the lengths already given.
like terms: 3x + x = 4x, -4 + 2 = -2. Now you're left with, 4x - 2.
2. Find the difference between the perimeter and the sum of the lengths.
(10x -3) + (4x + 2) = 6x - 1
