We have the following expression:
(x- (5/2)) ^ 2 = (13/4)
Let's rewrite the given expression:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 25/4 = (13/4)
x ^ 2 - 5x + 25/4 - 13/4 = 0
x ^ 2 - 5x + 12/4 = 0
x ^ 2 - 5x + 3 = 0
Answer:
the original equation given to Sam could have been:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 3 = 0
Since 500 is the area, and 20 is the length, divide 500 by 20. Your answer is a decimal. (0.04) therefore, you have to make it into a whole number. So move the decimal to the right two times. So 4 is your height.
Answer:
5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form for a linear equation is y = mx + b. The variable's (x) coefficient, which is represented as m, is the slope of any linear equation.
