Answer:
The street light is 20 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question depends on a proportion. Keep your height of the object in one ratio and the length of the shadow in the other.
25/x = 75/60 Notice the height of the structure is on the left. The length of the shadow is on the right. Cross multiply
75x = 60 * 25 Combine the right
75x = 1500 Divide by 75
x = 1500/75
x = 20
The street light is 20 feet tall.
Answer:
y intercept at 5/2. Slope is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for a line can be represented by the formula y=mx+b. M is the slope or rate of change and b is the y intercept. Since the equation y=5/2 does not have an x in it the slope is 0 and you have a perfectly straight horizontal line. Since we are just left with 5/2 that is our y intercept.
In other words, no matter what value you plug in for x, y will always be 5/2.
The standard form of a quadratic equation is ,
ax² + bx + c = 0.
And the formula to find the discriminant is b² - 4ac.
Here the first step is to change the given equation into standard form. So, add 1 to each sides of the equation. Therefore,
2x² – 9x + 2+1 = –1 + 1
2x² – 9x + 3 = 0
Next step is to compare the given equation with this equation to get the value of a, b and c.
After comparing the equations we will get a = 2, b = -9 and c = 3.
So, discriminant = b²- 4ac
=( -9)²-4 (2)(3)
= 81 - 24
= 57
So, discriminant of the given equation is 57.
57 is greater than 0 and square root of 57 will result real number.
So, the correct choice is C: The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots.
Answer:
6 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is find the difference between the numbers in each factor pair and make sure the factors combine to give 48.
2 and 4 . . . . . have a difference of 2, but 2·4 ≠ 48
4 and 6 . . . . . have a difference of 2, but 4·6 ≠ 48
6 and 8 . . . . . have a difference of 2, and 6·8 = 48
24 and 2 . . . . do not have a difference of 2
