ok so basically x=1/2 which is the exact form. and the decimal form is x=0.5 Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
answer = -13
Step-by-step explanation:
number = x
x - 8 = -21
x = -21 + 8
= -13
Recheck :
num = - 13
decreased by 8 = - 13 -8 = -21
This seems like a right triangle problem.
So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem (
) to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.
So, the equation is
.
Solve for x:
16+x^{2}= 196
x^{2}= 196-16
x^{2}= 180
x = 6√5 feet
Hope this helps!
