Answer:

The trestle meets ground level at 0.875 units and 9.125 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Poorly formatted question.

The given equation is:

y = -x^2 + 10x - 8

Required

The point where the trestle gets to the ground level

To do this, we set y = 0

So, we have:

-x^2 + 10x - 8 = 0

Multiply through by -1

x^2 -10x + 8 = 0

Solve using quadratic formula:

x= \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

Where:

a = 1; b =-10; c = 8

So, we have:

x= \frac{-(-10) \± \sqrt{(-10)^2 - 4*1*8}}{2*1}

x= \frac{-(-10) \± \sqrt{68}}{2*1}

x= \frac{-(-10) \± 8.25}{2}

x= \frac{10 \± 8.25}{2}

Solve the fraction

x= 5 \± 4.125

Split

x= 5 + 4.125\ or\ x= 5 - 4.125

x= 9.125\ or\ x= 0.875

Area of the living room is 180 square feet and the perimeter is 54 feet. What are the dimensions in feet?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer.....15ft by 12ft

Explanation:

Area = Length × Width

180 = LW....make W the subject of formula

;W = 180/L

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

54 = 2L + 2(180/L)...sub W with the formula above...

then simplify the equation and obtain...

2L^2 - 27L + 180 = 0....then solve using the quadratic formula....then obtain..

;L = 15ft....after obtaining L = 15...then substitute into the W = 180/L equation...

where W = 180/15 = 12ft

there you have...Length = 15ft and Width = 12ft
