<span>x^2+15=8x
</span><span>x^2-8x=-15
x^2  - 2 (x)(4) =-15
adding 16 on both sides
</span>x^2  - 2 (x)(4) +16=-15+16
x^2  - 2 (x)(4) + 4^2=  1

(x-4)^2=1

taking square root on bothsides   x-4 =  +-1
so x-4=1         or x-4=-1
x-5           or x=3

Elina [12.6K]

8.5x + 9x = y

That is because you don't know how many hours they worked, so you can't how much money they made.  

If you plugged in 4 hours for the x's you'll do something like this:

8.5 (4) + 9 (4) = y

34 + 36 = y

70 = y

That is how you would do it if you have the number of hours they worked.

LiRa [457]

To get the area of the cone we need to find the radius first.

tan 70=r/12

r=12tan 70

area of a circle is given by:

A=πr²

thus the area of the ground covered by the tent will be:

A=π(12tan70)²

The answer is  

A] A=π(12tan70°)²

3.<br> Find the value of x.<br> 16<br> 10<br> 14<br> 9
Airida [17]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Both the triangles are similar, so the corresponding sides are also similar.

That is,

12 / 8 = x / 6

Cross multiply,

x * 8 = 12 * 6

8x = 72

Divide 8 on both sides,

x = 72 / 8

x = 9
