Answer:

x=1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us replace the number with the variable "x". You will then get this equation:

8x-2=8

Move the -2 to 8 and you would get the equation:

8x=8+2

Simplify:

8x=10

Simplify:

x=10/8

You would then get the answer "x=1.25"

I hope this helps :)

Helpp!!!!<br> Give the relation and identify the x and y axis intercepts.

densk [106]

Answer:

(2, 0) and (6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = x^2 - 8 x + 12$

To get the x intersept put y = 0

$x^2 - 8 x + 12 = 0 \\\\x^2 - 6 x - 2 x + 12 = 0 \\\\x(x- 6) - 2(x - 6) = 0 \\\\(x - 2) (x - 6) = 0 \\\\x = 2 and x = 6$

So, the intersepts are

(2, 0) and (6, 0)

A person stands 15 ft from an elephant. Determine how tall the elephant is in feet, the given diagram.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The height of the elephant is $\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between a person and an elephant is 15 ft

The angle of elevation of the elephant is 30 degrees.

We need to find the height of the elephant. For this let us consider that height is h. So,

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{P}{B}\\\\\tan(30)=\dfrac{h}{15}\\\\h=15\times \tan(30)\\\\h=\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft$

So, the height of the elephant is $\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft$ .
