Answer: 200cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The center Planck is a square of length 8cm.

The 4 next planks are of 16 cm each

And the next 4 Planks are of 32 cm each.

8 + 4(8×2) + 4(8×4)

8 + 4(16) + 4(32)

8 + 64 + 128

200 cm

Length of the original plank is 200cm

What is the x of 2/3x squared minus 6x plus 15
iogann1982 [59]
(2/3)x^2 -6x + 15 = 0
Using the quadratic formula:
x = [-b +-sq root(b^2 - 4 *a*c)] / 2a
x= [--6 +-sq root(36 -4*(2/3)*15] / 2*(2/3)
x= [6 +-sq root 36 -40] / (4/3)

x1 = 4.5 + (2i / (4/3))
x1 = 4.5 + 1.5i
x2 = 4.5 - (2i / (4/3))
x2 = 4.5 - 1.5i

Solve the system of equations algebraically. Verify your answer using the graph.
nirvana33 [79]
Both of those equations are solved for y.  So if the first one is equal to y and the second one is equal to y, then the transitive property says that the first one is equal to the second one.  We set them equal to each other and solve for x.  4x-5=-3 and 4x = 2.  That means that x = 1/2.  We were already told that y = -3, so the coordinates for the solution to that system are (1/2, -3), B from above.
