The answer is the last one option: y+6=-34(x+2). I told you the reason in the other similar question.
The answer to your question is:
It is a quadratic equation in 'x', with 'n' mistakenly typed in the second term..
Although you didn't ask for the solutions to the equation, I'm already here
so I might as well go through it and find them:
<span><u>3x² - 2x - 5 = 0</u></span>
In terms of the generic quadratic formula:
A = 3
B = -2
C = -5
Plug those into the quadratic formula, and you discover that
<u>x = -1</u>
and
<u>x = ⁵/₃</u>
Answer:
The original height of the tree is 18 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see attached photo for explanation.
From the diagram, we shall determine the value of 'x'. This can be obtained by using the pythagoras theory as follow:
x² = 5² + 12²
x² = 25 + 144
x² = 169
Take the square root of both side
x = √169
x = 13 m
Finally, we shall determine the original height of the tree. This can be obtained as follow.
From the question given above, the tree was broken from a height of 5 m from the ground which form a right angle triangle with x being the Hypothenus as illustrated in the diagram.
Thus, the original height of the will be the sum of 5 and x i.e
Height = 5 + x
x = 13 m
Height = 5 + 13
Height = 18 m
Therefore, the original height of the tree is 18 m.
In one third you would need 12 one thirds to make a whole sixth
