Answer:

8feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation that models the arch of a school expressed as;

$y=-0.5\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)$

If the x axis represents the ground;

At the ground level, x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the equation to get y;

y = -0.5(0+4)(0-4)

y = -0.5(4)(-4)

y = -0.5 * -16

y = 8ft

Hence the y axis at the ground level is 8feet

A piece of cloth is folded into a square with a side length measuring x inches. When it is unfolded, it has an area of x2 + 27x
Dmitriy789 [7]
Our task here is to find possible factors of <span>x^2 + 27x + 162.
We need to check out possible factors of 162 first.  Examples are:
2(81), 3(54), 6(27), 9(18), and so on.  Notice that 9 and 18 add up to 27, so that the factors (x+9) and (x+18) produce x^2 + 27x + 162 when mult. together.</span>

8th grade solving systems
Serhud [2]

Answer:

(x+22) + x = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

if x is how much your friend collected, then how much you collected would be x + 22 because you collected 22 more then her. and if you add both of those together to get how much you collected together (the total) you get 88. so x (your friends sea shells) plus x+22 (your sea shells) is 88. tell me if you also need help solving the actual equation

you have x+22 + x = 88

you combine like terms, in this case the Xs

and you get 2x + 22 = 88

then you subtract 22 to both sides because you want to get x alone

and you get 2x = 88 - 22

which is 2x = 66

then you divide by 2 on both sides

and you get x = 66/2

and you get x = 33
