Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
At th x-intercept y=o
∴40x + 70 = 0
40x = -70
x = -70/40
x = -1.75
x intercepr = (-1.75,0)
Answer: 8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a right triangle and label the sides using the given information. (Drawing below) Use pythagorean theorem to find the missing length:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(building)^2 + (missing piece)^2 = (ladder)^2
6^2 + x^2 = 10^2
36 + x^2 = 100. subtract 36
x^2 = 64. square root of both sides
x = 8
okay well usually what I would tell you would be to use the ABC method. you would multiply A (2) by C (6) to get twelve. so you need two numbers that multiply to twelve and add to -4 (the B value). but there are no numbers that fit this description so you have to use the GCF method instead
for this method you must find the GCF for all three numbers which in this case is 2. 2(x^2-2x+3) all these numbers are now prime so this is the factored form
