Answer:

40 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

6/2 =3

?/2 =20

*2    *2

? = 40

you do inverse operations because 6 divided by 2 is 3... the ? is the variable for how tall the building is... ? divided by 2 = 20 so you multiply 2 and 20 to get the total height

Find the length of the leg(s) of a right triangle, to the nearest hundredth, if both legs are equal and the hypotenuse is 10.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

7.07 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem for the right triangle:

\text{hypotenuse}^2=\text{leg}_1^2+\text{leg}_2^2,\\ \\c^2=a^2+b^2.

If a = x, b = x, and c = 10, then

10^2=x^2+x^2,\\ \\100=2x^2,\\ \\x^2=50,\\ \\x=\sqrt{50}=5\sqrt{2}\approx 7.07\ units.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the last option

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic equation

                                2 = - x + x² - 4

Order the equation from the highest power to the lowest power. Do not consider 2 because it is not consider in the options given.

                               x² - x - 4  = 0

Identify a, b and c

                              (1) x² -(1) x - 4 = 0

    a = 1    b = -1    c = - 6      

Substitution              

                              \frac{-(-1) +- \sqrt{(-1)^{2} - 4(1)((-4)}}{2(1)}
