Answer:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown".
You can find the height by finding out the number of boxes and plugging it into an equation. Height = 7.5(Number of Boxes)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
If Triangle ABC is congruent with triangle DEF, DE=17, EF =13, DF =9, and BC = 2x-5, then which of the following is the correct value of x?
we know that
If two triangles are congruent, then their corresponding sides and their corresponding angles, are congruent
In this problem
The corresponding sides are
AB and DE
AC and DF
BC and EF
The corresponding angles are
∠A and ∠D
∠B and ∠E
∠C and ∠F
so
AB≅DE
AC≅DF
BC≅EF
and
∠A≅∠D
∠B≅∠E
∠C≅∠F
<em>Find the value of x</em>
BC≅EF
substitute the given values

Solve for x



Answer:
Assume that 1900km^2 is 1900.
If that happens, The equation of that will look like...
1900 - (1900 x 7.75% x 14)%.
1900 x 7.75% are 147.25.
and 147.25 x 14 are 2061.5.
so... there will be no forest after 14 years.(harsh)
Hope it helps!
Answer:
1 positive solution (and 1 negative)
the greatest solution is about 2.87
Step-by-step explanation:
so, it is
x² + 2x + 7 = 21
x² + 2x - 14 = 0
the general solution to such a quadratic equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
a = 1
b = 2
c = -14
x = (-2 ± sqrt(2² - 4×1×-14))/(2×1) =
= (-2 ± sqrt(4 + 56))/2 = (-2 ± sqrt(60))/2 =
= (-2 ± sqrt(4×15))/2 = (-2 ± 2×sqrt(15))/2 =
= -1 ± sqrt(15)
x1 = -1 + sqrt(15) = 2.872983346... ≈ 2.87
x2 = -1 - sqrt(15) = -4.872983346...
