4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, take half of the second coefficient, square it, then add the result to both sides.

(-8/2)² = (-4)² = 16

x² − 8x + 16 = 9 + 16

Solving:

(x − 4)² = 25

x − 4 = ±5

x = 4 ± 5

x = -1 or 9

Michela’s skateboard ramp is at an incline of 40°. When she attempts a trick on the ramp, she finds that it is too steep. She ad

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

22.7604763 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the answer is NOT 20 degrees.

She adjusted the ramp to half the original <em>incline</em>

Therefore we have tan 40 = x = 0.839099631.

We want an incline of y degrees where tan y = x/2 = 0.839099631/2 = 0.419549815

Taking the arctan of both sides, we get

y = arctan(0.419549815) = 22.7604763 degrees

Graph the line that has a slope of 1/4 and includes the point (0,8)

Alex787 [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line:

$y = mx + c$

where m is the slope

and c is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0)

In this case, given the slope = 1/4

and y-intercept is 8 (from the point (0,8))

The equation of the following line is:

$y = \frac{1}{4} x + 8$
