Answer:

  5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The shorter tree is 5 ft shorter, but is growing 1 ft/year faster. It will make up the difference of 5 ft in (5 ft)/(1 ft/year) = 5 years.

What is the equation of the line in standard form?
belka [17]

Answer:

y = 6x + 4 \\ slop = 6 \\ y - y0 = slop(x - x0) \\ y - ( - 8) = 6 \times (x - 1) \\ y + 8 = 6x - 6 \\ y = 6x - 6 - 8 = 6x - 14

Select the correct answer.<br> What is the solution to the equation?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{x} + 6 = x ( subtract 6 from both sides )

\sqrt{x} = x - 6 ( square both sides )

x = (x - 6)² ← expand using FOIL

x = x² - 12x + 36 ( subtract x from both sides )

0 = x² - 13x + 36 , that is

x² - 13x + 36 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 4)(x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.

x = 4

left side = \sqrt{4} + 6 = 2 + 6 = 8

right side = x = 4

Since 8 ≠ 4 then x = 4 is an extraneous solution

x = 9

left side = \sqrt{9} + 6 = 3 + 6 = 9

right side = x = 9

Thus the solution is x = 9 → B

Imagina que vas a un partido de béisbol con tus amigos, y tienen hambre. El costo de dos botellas de agua y 3 bolsas de palomita
Rudik [331]

Answer:

El costo de una botella de agua es de $10

El costo de una bolsa de palomitas de maíz es de $15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Los parámetros dados son;

El costo de dos botellas de agua y 3 bolsas de palomitas de maíz = $65

El costo de 4 botellas de agua y 1 bolsa de palomitas de maíz = $55

Donde x = El costo de una botella de agua ey = El costo de una bolsa de palomitas de maíz, tenemos;

2 × x + 3 × y = 65 ... (1)

4 × x + y = 55 ... (2)

Haciendo y el tema de ambas ecuaciones, tenemos;

Para la ecuación (1), tenemos;

2 · x + 3 · y = 65

3 · y = 65 - 2 · x

y = 65/3 - 2/3 · x

Para la ecuación (2), tenemos;

4 · x + y = 55

y = 55 - 4 · x

Igualando ambos valores de y para encontrar la solución común, tenemos;

65/3 - 2/3 · x = 55 - 4 · x

4 · x - 2/3 · x = 55 - 65/3

10 · x / 3 = 100/3

∴ 10 · x = 100

x = 100/10 = 10

x = 10

El costo de una botella de agua = x = $10

y = 55 - 4 · x = 55 - 4 × 10 = 55 - 40 = 15

y = 15

El costo de una bolsa de palomitas de maíz = y = $15

Which equation is equivalent to
marshall27 [118]
Answer:

C) 29x=5

reason:

first, distribute the parentheses
this will make your equation 8-20x=6-3+9x
simplify to get 8-20x=3+9x
add 20x to both sides to get 8=3+29x
subtract 3 from both sides to get 5=29x
