Answer: Equation:
or
x is the cost of each shrub x = $10
Step-by-step explanation: Total bill = $62.50.
Subtract the cost of potting soil for $12.50 to find the cost of just the shrubs. 5x equals that amount
5x = 62.50 - 12.50
5x = 50 divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 50/5
x = 10
m^2 -11m -60 = 0
m^2 -11m =60
(m^2 -11m + 121/4) = 361/4
(m - 11/2)^2 = 361/4
m - 11/2 = + or - 19/2
m = 11/2 + 19/2, 11/2 - 19/2
m = 15, -4
---------------------------------------------------
m^2 -11m -60
(11 +- Square root (121 +240))/2
11/2 +- 19/2
m= 15, -4
----------------------------------------------------
m^2 -11m -60
(m - 15) (m + 4)
m = 15, -4
8ft. I hope this helped. .-.
Both the points have a coordinate where y is -1, so the equation is simply -1
y=-1
however if you wanted to really show the working out, it looks like this:
y=mx+c
m=change in y/change in x
m=(-1-1)/(-5+0)=0
subsitute one of the coordinates into y=mx+c
-1=0+c
c=-1
so then y=-1
Answer:
x=4
y=4√5
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up 3 right triangles and mark their respective angles. The largest will have sides (in typical a,b,c[hypotenuse] order) y, z, and 10. The middle 8, x, and y. The smallest x, 2, and z.
Then since they are all similar triangles, using the midde and smaller triangles, set up the proportionin which both A sides when divided are equal to the B sides.
So 8/x = x/2
Cross multiply and get 16=x^2.
The square root of 16 is 4, so x is 4.
Then using the larger and middle triangles, do the same for the A and C sides.
So y/8 = 10/y.
Cross multiply and get 80=y^2.
Find the square root of it, which since it doesn't have a perfect square, you use a calculator or the whatever theorem and get √4*4*5 or simply 4√5.
So x = 4 and y = 4√5
