8x^2 = 96x
8x^2 - 96x = 0
8x(x - 12) = 0

8x = 0....x = 0

x - 12 = 0
x = 12

ur number is 12

We can represent the following statement or expression into an equation. Let x be the non zero number that is the unknown of this problem. In this case,

8 x^2 = 96 x
we can cancel out x from both sides, resulting to
8x = 96
x = 12

Answer is A

Answer:

h(-4) = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x is given (x = -4). Then, all you need to do is log in -4 for each value of x

h(-4) =

−

A ladder is leaning against a wall. The top of the ladder is 9 feet (ft) above the ground. If the bottom of the ladder is moved

Komok [63]

Step 1

First situation

when a ladder is leaning against a wall

Let

x-------> the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall

L-------> the length of the ladder

Find the length of the ladder

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$L^{2} =x^{2}+ 9^{2}$ ------> equation $1$

Step 2

Second situation

when the ladder will be lying flat on the ground

Find the length of the ladder

In this situation the length of the ladder is equal to

$L=x+3$

square both sides

$L^{2}=(x+3)^{2}$ ------> equation $2$

Step 3

equate equation $1$ and equation $2$

$x^{2}+ 9^{2}=(x+3)^{2}\\x^{2}+81=x^{2} +6x+9\\ 6x=81-9\\6x=72\\x=12\ ft$

therefore

the answer is

the length of the ladder is $12\ ft$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
