4(2x + 10)=0
8x + 40 = 0
8x = -40
x = -5
The most precise is 4.00 because that is equal to 10.16 cm and that is the most closes to an exact measurment.
<span>Divide 16 by 34, then move the decimal point two places to the left.

This seems like a right triangle problem.
So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem (
) to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.
So, the equation is 
.
Solve for x:
16+x^{2}= 196
x^{2}= 196-16
x^{2}= 180
x = 6√5 feet
Hope this helps!
X/y = 2 so x = 2y
z/x = 4 so z = 4x but x = 2y so z = 4(2y) = 8y
now you have
x = 2y, z = 8y
x + y + z 2y + y + 8y 11y 11
------------ = -----------------------= ------------- = ----------- = 5 1/2
x 2y 2y 2
answer
C. 5 1/2
