8x + (2x - 14)= 7x + 3x -14
10x -14= 10x - 14
These equations are identical, so it would be the identity property and the answer would either be identity or the fancy 'R'.
Since im lazy im not going to do the work. an inch = 2.57 centimeters. so you have 1 inch - 2 centimeters yes? multiply it by two, and then multiply the inches. The answer would be <span>2 cm × 3 cm. Hope I helped.</span>
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
3 ft
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The statue's height is 1.5 times the length of its shadow, so we expect the same relationship for the globe.
... 1.5 × 2 ft = 3 ft
_____
<em>Comment on the problem</em>
As a practical matter, with the sun high enough in the sky to cast a shadow shorter than the object's height, it will be quite difficult to measure the length of the shadow of the point at the top of the globe. The shadow of other parts of the globe will interfere.
X=4
After squaring both sides, you get
4(x+5)=x^2-20x+100
Multiply
4x+20=x^2-20x+100
Collect like terms
4x+20-x^2+20x-100=0
Reorder
24x-80-x^2=0
Change signs & Write as difference. You end up with
x^2-4x-20x+80=0
Factor
x-4=0 , x-20=0
4=4 , 0=20
x=4
70-40= 30
30/2 = 15
40/2= 20
15 x 20 = 300
