As a bonus, you get a graph for the other problem you posted. Please note this graph has some issues. Wherever there's a solid line ⌝ or ⌞ the actual shape of the graph should be the opposite one of these.
The answer to your question is 3 3/4.. i hope its right.
Usually the easiest way to solve this is by using a calculator. Of course only if your teacher allows you too.
Let a and b represent the heights of the corresponding buildings (in meters).
... a = b +271 . . . . . . . a is 271 meters taller than b
... 2b -a = 211 . . . . . . if a is subtracted from twice b, the result is 211
Use the expression for a in the first equation to substitute for a in the second.
... 2b - (b+271) = 211
... b = 482 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify and add 271
... a = b +271 = 753
Building a is 753 meters tall; building b is 482 meters tall.
Hello there!
x² + x = 7/4
x² + - 7/4 = 0
Now we gonna use the quadratic formula to find x
a= 1
b=1
c = -1.75
x = -b+/-√b² -4ac all of them divide by 2a
x = -(1)+/-√(1)² - (4)(1)(-1.75) all of them divide by 2(1)
x= -1+/-√8 all of them divide by 2
x = -1/2 + √2 or x = -1/2 - √2
The correct option is option C
I hope that helps!
