Answer:

Height of building from base to ladder = 5.8 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of ladder = 6 meters

Distance of ladder from base = 1.5 meters

Find:

Height of building from base to ladder

Computation:

Perpendicular = √Hypotenuse² - Base²

Height of building from base to ladder = √Length of ladder² - Distance of ladder from base²

Height of building from base to ladder = √6² - 1.5²

Height of building from base to ladder = √36 - 2.25

Height of building from base to ladder = √33.75

Height of building from base to ladder = 5.8 meter (Approx.)

Which are the solutions of x2 = –7x – 8?

vovangra [49]

Answer:

The solutions are:

$x_1=\frac{-7+\sqrt{17}}{2}$ $x_2=\frac{-7-\sqrt{17}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic equation

$x^2 = -7x - 8$

We can rewrite the equation as follows

$x^2+7x + 8=0$

Now we use the quadratic formula to solve the equation

For an equation of the form $ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0$ the quadratic formula is:

$x=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In this case:

$a=1,\ b=7,\ c=8$

Then:

$x=\frac{-7\±\sqrt{7^2-4(1)(8)}}{2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-7\±\sqrt{49-32}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-7\±\sqrt{17}}{2}$

$x_1=\frac{-7+\sqrt{17}}{2}$

$x_2=\frac{-7-\sqrt{17}}{2}$

Solve the systems of equations. <br>

rewona [7]

Answer:

x = -1 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 3x+3y=−6;−x+y=0

Steps:

I will solve your system by substitution.

−x+y=0;3x+3y=−6

Step: Solve−x+y=0for y:

−x+y+x=0+x(Add x to both sides)

y=x

Step: Substitutexforyin3x+3y=−6:

3x+3y=−6

3x+3x=−6

6x=−6(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−6

(Divide both sides by 6)

x=−1

Step: Substitute−1forxiny=x:

y=x

y=−1

Answer:

x=−1 and y=−1
