What is the most logical first step in solving the equation x2 + 6x +9 = 10?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

<u>D</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The logical step is to <u>factorize the left side of the equation</u>, which becomes:

  • (x + 3)² = 10

Then, you can take the square root on both sides.

  • x + 3 = ±√10
  • x = ±√10 - 3

Not asked, but good to understand the procedure regardless.

A store has a 25% off sale on coats. Marcy saved $18.75 on the coat she bought. What was the original price of the coat?
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

$25

Step-by-step explanation:

18.75 is 75% of a value. You can easily find the answer by dividing 18.75 and 0.75.

When you have a problem like x*5=30, you divide 30/5 to get 6. Same here, x*0.75=18.75. Divide 18.75/0.75 to get the answer.

A building casts a shadow that is 50 feet in length. If the distance from the end of the shadow to the top of the building is 25
lozanna [386]

Answer:

The height of the building is of 244.95 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this question.

We have that:

The shadow of 50 feet is one side of the right triangle, while the height h is other side.

The hypotenuse is the distance from the end of the shadow to the top of the building, which is 250 feet.

So

50^2 + h^2 = 250^2

h^2 = \sqrt{250^2 - 50^2}

h = 244.95

The height of the building is of 244.95 feet.
