Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 6 and y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

AB = x                     DF = 18

BC = 5                     FE = 15

AC = 3                     DE = y

Process

1.- Find y

Use proportions to find it

                 DE/FE = AC/BC

Substitution

                 y/15 = 3/5

Solve for y

                  y = 15(3/5)

                  y = 45/5

                  y = 9

2.- Find x

                AB/DF = BC/FE

Substitution

                x/18 = 5/15

Solve for x

                x = 18(5/15)

                x = 90/15

                x = 6

How would you find the x-intercept of f(x)=(x-4)^2-3?
Svetlanka [38]
The x -intercepts occur when f(x) =0
So,
(x-4)^2 = x^2 -8x + 16 -3 =0
x^2 -8x + 13 =0
Solving by the quadratic formula
x1 = 5.7321
x2 = 2.2679

(2) (x-7) (=3) (x+8)
Tasya [4]

Use the distributive property to get 2x - 14 = 3x + 24. Subtract 24 from both sides to get 2x - 38 = 3x. Subtract 2x from both sides to get -38 = x.
