The x values decrease by 12 and the y increase by 4.
Answer: (x-12, y+4)
If we write
where we see
in the equation and set the result equal to
, we get the result.
Answer:
The height of the building is 
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
In the right triangle ABC

we have

substitute and solve for BC


Find the height of the building
The height of the building (h) is equal to

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = x
width = x - 7
height = x - 10
volume = 600 in^3
Volume = L * w * h
600 = x * (x - 7)*(x - 10)
600 = x * (x^2 - 17x + 70)
600 = x^3 - 17x^2 + 70x
x^3 - 17x^2 + 70x - 600 = 0
There is a genius somewhere that could solve this using algebra. The rest of us have 2 choices. We can graph it (see below) or we could use a program that solves it for us. I'll do both for you.
a = 1
b = - 17
c = 70
d = - 600
There is only 1 real solution: x = 15
L = 15
w = 8
h = 5
That has to be one of the ugliest graphs made. It does into the hundreds of thousands and it still looks like a straight line. Trust me. It's not.
65 is the answer. Solve the first equation and then plug in.
