To find the height of the cactus, make a ratio.

58 inches divided by 4 feet equals x inches divided by 8 feet.

58/4 = x/8

14.5 = x/8

116 = x

The height of the cactus is 116 inches.

What is the value of x in the figure Pls help

Murljashka [212]

Answer: x=18

im assuming that this is a right angle

so if it is then that means the total of the angle should be 90 degrees. so 2x+3x should be equal to 90. Just combine like terms to get that 5x=90 and then isolate the variable (divide by 5 on both sides) so x ends up equaling 18.

so x=18

Question number 3 pls

marissa [1.9K]

Factoring f(x) would give a factor (x-1-2i), so you can divide f(x) by this, leaving (x-3)(x+4)(x-1+2i), so the other roots are:

x=3
x=-4
x=1-2i
