they are 2 similar triangles, one is smaller than the other. they are in the ratio of 2:1,
hence 7x =56÷2
7x=28
x=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a picture!
You get a right triangle with hypotenuse = 20 ft and horizontal leg = 12 ft
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the vertical leg:
vertical leg = √(20²-12²) = √256 = 16 ft
First you need to see that this is a quadratic. I need.to put all of the values on one side of equation to see what I got.
6r^2 + 7r + 8 = 6
6r^2 + 7r + 2 = 0
Now this one is difficult to factor so i will use quadratic equation:
[-b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac)] / (2a)
we know that a b and c are in a quadratic at these positions.
ax^2 + bx + c
so
[-7 (+-) sqrt (7^2 -(4)(6)(2)] / (2) (6)
[-7 (+-) sqrt (49 - 48)] / 12
[-7 (+-) 1] /12
split into the + and - for 2 answers
(-7 + 1) / 12
-6/12
-1/2
And
(-7 -1) /12
-8 / 12
-2/3
those are.the 2 answers
But but it says largest so -1/2
Answer:
y = -x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x -h):
y - [-1] = -1(x - 3), or
y + 1 = -x + 3, or
y = -x + 2
