Answer:

9670 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height given (8219.5 ft) is 85% OF ORIGINAL, hence original is much higher. But how do we figure this out?

<em>we translate word problem to equation.</em>

<em />

<em>8219.5 IS 85% of TOTAL</em>

<em />

Firstly, 85% = 85/100 = 0.85

Remember, is means =

of means multiplication

So we have:

<em>8219.5 = 0.85 * Total</em>

<em>Hence, total = [let total be 7]</em>

<em>8219.5 = 0.85 * t</em>

<em>t = 8219.5/0.85 = </em><em>9670 feet</em>

Write the equation of the line that passes. Throught the point (-2,1)and (0,8)put your aswer in fully reduce point slope form un
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we need to find the slope

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-2,1)...x1 = -2 and y1 = 1

(0,8)...x2 = 0 and y2 = 8

now sub

slope = (8 - 1) / (0- (-2) = 7/(0 + 2) = 7/2

point slope form : y - y1 = m(x - x1)

using point (-2,1)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 1

slope(m) = 7/2

now sub

y - 1 = 7/2(x - (-2) =

y - 1 = 7/2(x + 2) <==== here is one answer

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

using point (0,8)...x1 = 0 and y1 = 8

slope(m) = 7/2

now sub

y - 8 = 7/2(x - 0) <===== another possible answer

What is the simplified form of 12z^2-7z-12/3z^2+2z-8? ...?
gavmur [86]
It should go like this:

(4z + 3) (3z - 4) / (3z - 4) (z + 2)

Then you just cancel out (3z -4) and (3z -4), and the final simplified form of this polynomial is:

(4z +3) / (z + 2)
