<span>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

</span>1/2 (6−z) = <span>z
</span><span>
(1/2) (6) + (1/2) (-z) = z (distribute)

3 + -1/2z = z

-1/2z + 3 = z

</span><span>Step 2: Subtract z from both sides.
</span><span>
-1/2z + 3 - z = z - z

-3/2z + 3 = 0

</span><span>Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.
</span><span>
-3/2z + 3 - 3 = 0 - 3

-3/2z = -3

</span><span>Step 4: Multiply both sides by 2/(-3).
</span><span>
(2/-3) * (-3/2z) = (2/-3) * (-3)

z = 2

Answer: z = 2

I hope this helps you!:) Sorry it took me so long!

How far is the little guy from the flagpole (assuming a right angle between the flagpole and the ground)? Explain how you got yo
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

b = 9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b ^2 = c^2

Given:

a = 12

b = ?

c = 15

Plug in values:

12^2 + b^2 = 12^2

Solve for b^2:

b^2 = 15^2 - 12^2

b^2 = 225 - 144

b^2 = 81

Take square root of both sides to find b:

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(81)

b = 9


Hope this helps! :)

F(x)=5x^4 helllllpppppp
Marina CMI [18]

we can use properties of functions to find this out


for f(x)=ax^b


if b is even, then the ends of the function go in the same directions (both up or both down)

if b is odd, then the ends of the function go in different directions (one up and one down)


if a is positive and b is even, then both ends point up

if a is positve and b is odd, then it goes from bottom left to top right

if a is negative and b is even, then both ends point down

if a is negative and b is odd, then it goes from top left to bottom right


given f(x)=5x^4

a=5>0

b=4 which is even

so it has both ends pointing up

bottom right graph is yo answer
