If this is the only information given then the accurate estimate would be 26 feet because the 8 foot poles shadow streches 1 foot more then the acctuall object so if the same rule is applied to the tree just subract 1 away since u only have the shadows length then ur answer is
26

If you rotate the triangle so that the 6 is on the bottom, the two sides are both 6.2.

Because the two sides are equal the two angles at the bottom would also be equal. One is given as 61 degrees, so the other bottom angle is also 61 degrees.

The three inside angles of a triangle need to equal 180, so X would equal 180 minus the two bottom angles.

X = 180 - 61 - 61 = 58 degrees.

Which statement is true about the equations –3x + 4y = 12 and 1/4x –1/3 y = 1?The system of the equations has exactly one soluti

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The system of the equations has no solution; the two lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations have the same slope. In standard form, this can be seen as the same coefficients for x and y. We will multiply the second equation by -12 to reveal this.

$\frac{1}{4} x-\frac{1}{3}y=1 \\-12(\frac{1}{4} x-\frac{1}{3}y=1)\\\frac{-12}{4} x-\frac{-12}{3}y=-12\\-3x+4y=-12$

This means the equations are parallel and will never cross. There is no solution.
