Answer:

x would equal -11 or 13

Step-by-step Explanation:

x(x - 2) - 143 = 0

x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0

-2x + x^2 = 143

-143 + (-2x) + x^2 = 0

(x - 13)(x + 11)

x - 13 = 0

Add 13 to both sides

x = 13

x + 11 = 0

Subtract 11 from both sides

x = -11

Write an equation to show the height of the two buildings are equal to each other. Then solve for x. Show all your steps when so

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

X = 108.

Step-by-step explanation:

Heights are equal, So equation will be,

$4 + 3 \sqrt{x - 8} = 34$

So, solving the eq.

Subtract 4 from both sides ,

$3 \sqrt{x - 8} = 30$

Divide 3 to both sides,

$\sqrt{x - 8} = 10$

Squaring both sides,

$x - 8 = 100$

Add 8 to both sides,

$x = 108$

Rachel reads 1/5 of the pages of a book plus 12 pages on the first day.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

Let's say that the whole book have 5a pages.

First day: a + 12

Second day: (4a)1/4+15= a + 15

Third day: (1/3)[ 4a - (a+15)] +18= a + 13

Forth day: 70

So we get this:

(a + 12) + (a + 15) + (a + 13) + 70 = 5a

a + 12 + a + 15 + a + 13 + 70 = 5a

3a + 110 = 5a

3a - 5a = -110

-2a = -110

a = 55

5a = 5(55) = 275

So the total pages are in the book is:

275 pages
