6 0

To find the solution to this, we need to use the substitution method.

y = -5x + 3

Substitute the value for y.

y =1

1 = -5x + 3

Now, solve for x.

1-3 = -5x + 3 Apply the inverse operation to both sides of the equation.
-3

1-3 is -2

-2 = -5x

-5x/-5 = -2/-5
x = 0.4

Final answer:- x = 0.4 y = 1

Simplify radical using the exponent rule. Show work

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{x^{4} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

( $\sqrt[3]{x^{2} }$ × $\sqrt[6]{x^{4}}$ )⁻³

$\sqrt[3]{x^{2} }$ is the same thing as $x^{\frac{2}{3} }$

you can think of the numerator as the power and the denominator as the root

rewrite both terms:

( $x^{\frac{2}{3} }$ × $x^{\frac{4}{6} }$ )⁻³

simplify the 4/6:

( $x^{\frac{2}{3} }$ × $x^{\frac{2}{3} }$ )⁻³

bases are the same, add the exponents:

( $x^{\frac{4}{3} }$ )⁻³

multiply the exponents:

$x^{\frac{-12}{3} }$

simplify:

x⁻⁴

negative power rule:

$\frac{1}{x^{4} }$

Andrew is building a ramp for a snowboarding competition. The rules of the competition say that the height of the ramp must be 8

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The length of the third piece of the ramp is;

D. 9.24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The height of the ramp = 8 feet

The angle between the piece that forms height and the base = 90°

The angle formed by the third piece connecting the height of the ramp to the furthest point and the 8 foot piece = 30°

Let 'y' represent the 8-foot piece forming the height, and let 'r' represent the third piece, by trigonometric ratio, we have;

$cos(30^{\circ}) = \dfrac{y}{r}$

Therefore, we get;

$cos(30^{\circ}) = \dfrac{8}{r}$

$r = \dfrac{8 \ feet}{cos(30^{\circ})} = \dfrac{8 \ feet}{\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2} } = \dfrac{16 \cdot \sqrt{3} \ feet}{3} \approx 9.24 \ feet$

The length of the third piece, r ≈ 9.24 feet
