Substitute 4 for y. Then -3x^2 + 16 = 52.
Solve for x. Subtract 16 from both sides, obtaining -3x^2 = 36.
Divide both sides by -3, obtaining x^2 = -12. This last result makes no sense, as no square of a real number could be negative. Probably this is where you're ":getting a negative answer."
If imaginary answers were allowed, then x = i*√12 = i*2√3 or x = -i*2√3.
x =
Answer:
reflection across the x axis then reflection across the y axis

Answer:
I don’t understand the question
Step-by-step explanation:
The total height of the building in the picture has been shown as
x + x + 6
That is, the first two storys have been shown as x feet each and the total height is 26 feet.
That means the two x are actually 20 feet, (if you deduct the 6 feet given)
Total height = x + x + 6
26 = x + x + 6
26 = 2x + 6
Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation
26 - 6 = 2x + 6 - 6
20 = 2x
Divide both sides of the equation by 2 and you now have,
20/2 = 2x/2
10 = x
Therefore, te height of each story is 10 feet!
-4.666666(so forth) or -4.7 if the problem requires you to round.
