In order to figure this out you need to use slope intercept for for each of these hills. Let's say the first hill is HA and the second hill is B

slope intercept: y = mx + b

HA: y = (2/10)x
HB: y = (2/15)x

As you can see when you plot this on a graph, HB is steeper because the line rises more sharply.

Answer: Ok, the first hill rises 2 feet for every 10 feet of run.

So if both hills start in the ground where y = 0, we can write the height as a function of x in the next way: y = (2/10)*X so for every 10 feet you advance in x, you rise 2 feet in Y, where here 2/10 is the slope.

The second hill is described by y = (2/15)*X, so for every 15 feet in x, you rise 2 feet in y, and the slope is 2/15

Is easy to see that 2/10 > 2/15, so the slope of the first hill is bigger than the slope of the second hill, this means that the first hill is steeper than the second.

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, first subtract 5 from each side:

5 + 7x = 40

7x = 35

Then divide each side by 7:

x = 5

Answer:

the answer is 1/2 which loos like "D"

Step-by-step explanation:

the top ends up being x ^-8 and the denominator is x^-7

which is x^&/x^8 = 1/x = 1/2

Step 2 - Fill in the missing number: A vertical line and horizontal line combine to make a L shape. There is one row of entries
aivan3 [116]

The synthetic division's representation of the dividend is 2x3 + 10x2 + x + 5.

Given that

An L shape is created when two lines intersect vertically and horizontally.

The shape has entries in two rows.

Entries in row 1 are 2, 10, 1, and 5.

Blank, -10, and 0 are the entries in row 2.

A simplified method of dividing a polynomial with another polynomial equation of degree one is known as synthetic division.

On the exterior, to the left of the form, is entry number 5.

The entry stands for the divisor's zero.

If the variable is x, then this entry to the variable is;

2x³+10x²+x+5

The dividend is thus represented by synthetic division as

2x³+10x²+x+5

The Question is incomplete And complete question is given below!!

What dividend is represented by the synthetic division below? A vertical line and horizontal line combine to make a L shape. There are two rows of entries within the shape. Row 1 has entries 2, 10, 1, 5. Row 2 has entries blank, negative 10, 0, negative 5. Entry negative 5 is on the outside to the left of the shape, and a third row of entries is outside and below the shape. Row 3 has entries 2, 0, 1, 0. Negative 10 x squared minus 5 2 x cubed 10 x squared x 5 2 x squared 1 2 x cubed x.
