Set up ratios of height / shadow length:

8/6 = x/100

Cross multiply

6x = 800

Divide both sides by 6

X = 133.33 feet

The tower is 133.3 feet

The solution is completely correct, as putting 5 or 0 in the formula again will make it true.

|2(0)-5|=5
|-5|=5
5=5

|2(5)-5|=5
|10-5|=5

Help me with this please everyone
cupoosta [38]
First, let's simplify each expression by combining like terms:

A: 9x-3x-4 = 6x-4

B: 12x-4 = 12x-4 (Already Combined terms)

C: 5x+x-4 = 6x-4

When looking at the list of equations, it is clear that only Expression A and C are equivalent. Brianna failed to combine like terms and plug in more points than 0. 

I Hope this Helps!

Answer:

80 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Central Angle Theorum, which states that if the vertex of the angle is the center of the circle, then the arc is the same measurement as the angle.

In this case, m<COB is 80 degrees, and the vertex is the center of the circle, which means that measure of arc CB is also 80 degrees

when directed to solve a quadratic equation by completing the square, Sam arrived at the equation (x-(5/2))^2= (13/4). which equ
Tasya [4]
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
