If you need part A, draw a person and label them 6 feet tall and a shadow coming off of him that is five feet long and draw a basketball hoop that and label it X feet tall and draw a shadow coming from it that is 8 feet long. To solve, you use proportions 6/5=X/8 solving this you get X=9.6 feet which is the height of the rim. Therefore, the rim does not meet regulation height, since the required height (10 feet) is greater than the actual height (9.6 feet).
Answer:
(3, 50) and (14,303)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations;
y=23x–19 ....1
x²–y= – 6x–23 ...2
Substitute 1 into 2;
x²–(23x-19)= – 6x–23
x²–23x+19= – 6x–23 .
x²-23x + 6x + 19 + 23 = 0
x² - 17x + 42 = 0
Factorize;
x² - 14x - 3x + 42 = 0
x(x-14)-3(x-14) = 0
(x-3)(x-14) = 0
x = 3 and 14
If x = 3
y = 23(3) - 19
y = 69-19
y = 50
If x = 14
y = 23(14) - 19
y = 322-19
y = 303
Hence the coordinate solutions are (3, 50) and (14,303)
Answer:
(-2,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
for question number 15...cordinated grid shows each equation...first equation is represented by straight line going upwards through +4 in y axis...(y=3x+4)...
point is....every point in this two lines represent a possible x and y value for each equation...and there is a point where these lines meet each other....in that point...x and y values are possible values for both equations.so answer is (-2,-2)...this cordination satisfy each pairs of equation...you can try using -2 for x in both equations and get -2 as the answer for y...that proves the point..try it for 16 quiz.good luck
