Answer:
x = -7 or x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
(x + 3)² = -16
Problem;
Solve for x;
Solution:
To solve for x; we use the factorization method;
Take -16 to the left of the equation;
(x + 3)² = -16
(x + 3)² + 16 = 0
(x+ 3)² + 4² = 0
if x² + y² = (x + y)(x - y)
So;
(x + 3 + 4) (x + 3 - 4) = 0
(x + 7)(x - 1) = 0
x + 7 = 0 or x - 1 = 0
x = -7 or x = 1
Answer:
15.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the sails are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.
Comparing the shortest sides, that is
10 : 6 = 5 : 3
let the longest side be x, then using proportion
=
( cross- multiply )
5x = 78 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 15.6
The longest side is 15.6 ft
Answer:
30 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rotational symmetry is defined as a figure having the same appearance when rotated by a certain angle.
The wheel has 12 "handles." We can use these as reference points when rotating the image.
We also know that we can rotate by a total of 360 degrees. We can say that:
360/12 = 30 degrees.
Each time you rotate the wheel by 30 degrees, the image will end up on another handle (looks the same). This shows rotational symmetry.
I hope this helps!
You are solving for the height. Use the formula:
c² - b² = a² in which c = hypotenuse
(13)² - (5)² = a²
Simplify
169 - 25 = a²
144 = a²
Isolate the a. Root both sides
√144 = √a²
a = √144
a = √(12 x 12)
a = 12
C) 12 feet is your answer
