Answer:
y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
use elimination by making the ys opposite in value and eliminating them from the equation so there is only variable:
-3x+2y=6
2(4x-y=2)
-3x+2y=6
8x-2y=4
Combine like terms and divide by 5 on both sides.
5x=10
x=2
Plug x in to find y:
4(2)-y=2
8-y=2
y=6
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
0 . 0 0 0
whole Tenths Hundredths Thousandths
Your answer is 15.875
-8+(-4)+(-2)+(-1)+(-1/2)+(-1/4)+(-1/8)
you half the previous vaule to find the next value
X=8
Explanation:
f(x)=x^2-16x+64+(x-8)^2
You see there is a double x- intercept by the 8. So the parabola is tangent to the x axis. So x=8 f(x)=0

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question that uses the Pythagorean Theorem.
a = 35 feet
b = x which is the height of the tree.
c = 3*x + 1 so we are trying to find x. Substitute into a b and c
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
35^2 + x^2 = (3x + 1)^2
35^2 + x^2 = 9x^2 + 6x + 1 Subtract x^2 from both sides.
35^2 = 8x^2 + 6x + 1 Subtract 35^2 from both sides.
0 = 8x^2 + 6x + 1 - 35^2
0 = 8x^2 + 6x - 1224
Does this factor?
(x + 12.75)(x - 12)
x - 12 = 0 is the only value that works.
x = 12
The tree is 12 feet high.
Note: I used the quadratic formula to solve this.
