1st space is 2
6th space (last) is 42
in betwen that is 5 spaces to go
find distance from 2 to 42
42-2=40

40=5 spaces
divide 5
8=1 space
each space goes upby 8

2=1st space
2+8=2nd space
2+8+8=3rd space=18=x


x=18

Answer: 35

Step-by-step-explanation:
There are 20 numbers. So, it would be 7 divided by 20. Which is 0.35. And 0.35 multiply by 100 is 35.

One zero of x^3 - 4x = 0 is 0 what are the other zeros of the function
myrzilka [38]
So you have x^3 - 4x = 0. What you can do is pull out an x from both x^3 and - 4x so it looks like this:

x( {x}^{2} - 4) = 0

Then you can find a number that makes the part inside the parentheses turn into zero. For beginners, it may be easier to write it out seperately and solve for x.

{x}^{2} - 4 = 0

We need to solve for x, so the first step is to add 4 to both sides, so we get something like this:

{x}^{2} = 4

Then, we can square root both sides to get rid of the power on the x, so it looks like this:

x = \sqrt{4}

Now, every square root has two answers, a positive and a negative. If we look at the bottom example:

{2}^{2} = 4

{( - 2)}^{2} = 4

We can see that both -2 and 2 to the power of two will equal to 4.

So finally, we get:

x = - 2 \: and \: 2

These are the other 'Zero's for the original function. If you are not sure of what a 'Zero' is, it is where the function crosses over the x-axis on a graph.

What is the solution of the system? use the substitution method. {y−2x=816 4x=2y the only solution is (24, 0) . the only solutio
Butoxors [25]
To determine the answer it would be helpful if we write this equation into the slope intercept form which is expressed as:

y = mx+b

<span> y−2x=816
y = 2x + 816

4x=2y
y = 2x

We can see that the slope of the two equations are the same. Therefore, they are parallel which means they do not intersect. The correct answer is the third option, there is no solution.</span>

How far is the little guy from the flagpole (assuming a right angle between the flagpole and the ground)? Explain how you got yo
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

b = 9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b ^2 = c^2

Given:

a = 12

b = ?

c = 15

Plug in values:

12^2 + b^2 = 12^2

Solve for b^2:

b^2 = 15^2 - 12^2

b^2 = 225 - 144

b^2 = 81

Take square root of both sides to find b:

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(81)

b = 9


Hope this helps! :)
