$x-\ Ramiro's\ height\\
y-\ Flapole's\ height\\
z-\ nearby\ tree\\\\
x=\frac{3}{10}y\\
y=\frac{5}{9}z \\z=32\frac{2}{5}\\\\\y=\frac{5}{9}*32\frac{2}{5}=\frac{5}{9}*\frac{162}{5}=18\\\\
x=\frac{3}{10}*18=5,4\\\\
Ramiro\ is\ 5,4\ feet\ tall.$

Find the solution using the Quadratic Formula. (show work) 2x + 8x+ 5 = 0 a. 47 ſ6 b. -27 56 c. -2± √3

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The roots of the equation for the given quadratic equation is $-2\pm \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic equation as :

2 x² + 8 x + 5 = 0

The roots of the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 as can be find as :

x = $\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\times a\times c}}{2\times a}$

x = $\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{8^{2}-4\times 2\times 5}}{2\times 2}$

or, x = $\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{64-40}}{4}$

Or, x = $\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{24}}{4}$

Or, x = $\frac{-8\pm 2\sqrt{6}}{4}$

∴ x = $-2\pm \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}$

Hence The roots of the equation for the given quadratic equation is $-2\pm \frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}$ . Answer

What is the area of a rectangle with side lengths of 5 12 foot and 2 3 foot

vazorg [7]

Answer:

3 2/3ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Given

Length = 5 1/2 foot

Width = 2/3foot

Substitute

Area of the rectangle = 5 1/2 × 2/3

Area of the rectangle = 11/2×2/3

Area of the rectangle = 22/6

Area of the rectangle = 11/3

Area of the rectangle = 3 2/3ft²
