Answer: 3/5
Step-by-step explanation: The fourth quadratic in the list is the square of a binomial:
25x^2 - 30x + 9 = (5x - 3)^2
Therefore, the repeated root of this quadratic is the solution to 5x - 3=0, which is 3/5
The height of the skyscraper to the nearest tenth is 234. 95 meters.
<h3>How to determine the height</h3>
From the information given, we have:
- angle of elevation = 32°
- length of the base, adjacent side = 376 meters
- height of the skyscraper, opposite side = x meters
To determine the height of the elevator, let's use the tangent identity
We have that;
tan θ = opposite/ adjacent
The value of the opposite side is 'x' which is the height of the skyscraper and the value of the adjacent side is 376 meters which is the length of the base of the skyscraper
Now, substitute the values, we have;
tan 32 = x/ 376
cross multiply
x = tan 32 × 376
x = 0. 6249 × 376
x = 234. 95 meters
We know that the 'x' represents the opposite side and thus the height of the skyscraper
Thus, the height of the skyscraper to the nearest tenth is 234. 95 meters.

Let's rewrite the equation with x and y on the left side of the equal sign.
5x-4y=8 --------(1)
3x-3y=3---------(2)
Divide equation (2) by 3,
x - y= 1
now we have,
5x-4y = 8 --------(1)
x - y = 1 ---------(2)
To eliminate x, multiply equation (2) by 5. This makes both the coefficients of x to be 5. Subtract the second equation from the first equation.
5x - 4y = 8
(2) * 5 5x - 5y = 5
(-) (+) (-)
----------------
0x +y =3
Therefore, y=3
Substitute the value of y, in any one of the two equations. Let's substitute y in the second equation.
x-3=1
x=4
x=4 and y=3
