Because the tree is the halfway point, the building would be twice as tall:
The building is 38 x 2 = 76 feet tall.
The greatest common factor of 21 and 40 is 1
2x+3y-10=0 (1)
+
4x-3y-2=0 (2)
____________
6x -12=0 (if you just want the resulting equation. It is 6x-12=0)
x=2
take x=2 and put it into equation (2)
4(2) -3y -2=0
-3y= 2-8
y= 2
(x=2,y=2)
<span>B. 16 quarts of the 2% milk and 24 quarts of the 7% milk
First, let's create an equation to solve.
x = quarts of 2% milk
(40-x) = quarts of 7% milk
So we have the equation
x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5
Now to solve for x
x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5
x*2 + 7*40 - 7*x = 40*5
x*2 - 7*x = 40*5 - 7*40
-5*x = - 2*40
x = 2*8
x = 16
So we need 16 quarts of 2% milk and 40-16 = 24 quarts of 7%, which matches option "B".</span>
An exponential function in mathematics is an exponential function is a function of the form where b is a positive real number, and in which the argument x occurs as an exponent. So its a function whose value is a constant raised to the power of the argument, especially the function where the constant is e.
