Two trees are growing in a clearing. The first tree is 17 feet tall and casts a 10 foot shadow. The second tree casts a 35 foot shadow. How tall is the
second tree to the nearest tenth of a foot?

Look at where we don't have repeating x values. This happens with function C and function D. All the x values are unique for each choice mentioned.

In choices A, B, and E, the value x = -3 repeats itself. So we don't have a function for either of these. A function is only possible if any input (x) leads to exactly one output (y).

Answer:

(-2, 4, 2)

Where x = -2, y = 4, and z = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the system of three equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \left\{ \begin{array}{l} 4x -y -2z = -8 \\ -2x + 4z = -4 \\ x + 2y = 6 \end{array}[/tex]

And we want to find the value of each variable.

Note that both the second and third equations have an x.

Therefore, we can isolate the variables for the second and third equation and then substitute them into the first equation to make the first equation all one variable.

Solve the second equation for z:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} -2x+4z&=-4 \\ x - 2 &= 2z \\ z&= \frac{x-2}{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Likewise, solve the third equation for y:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} x+2y &= 6\\ 2y &= 6-x \\ y &= \frac{6-x}{2} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Substitute the above equations into the first:

[tex]\displaystyle 4x - \left(\frac{6-x}{2}\right) - 2\left(\frac{x-2}{2}\right)=-8[/tex]

And solve for x:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 4x+\left(\frac{x-6}{2}\right)+(2-x) &= -8 \\ \\ 8x +(x-6) +(4-2x) &= -16 \\ \\ 7x-2 &= -16 \\ \\ 7x &= -14 \\ \\ x &= -2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, x = -2.

Find z and y using their respective equations:

Second equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} z&=\frac{x-2}{2} \\ &= \frac{(-2)-2}{2} \\ &= \frac{-4}{2} \\ &= -2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Third equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} y &= \frac{6-x}{2}\\ &= \frac{6-(-2)}{2}\\ &= \frac{8}{2}\\ &=4\end{aligned}[/tex]

In conclusion, the solution is (-2, 4, -2)

Answer:

x = -2

y =4

z=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x−y−2z=−8

−2x+4z=−4

x+2y=6

Solve the second equation for x

x = 6 -2y

Substitute into the first two equations

4x−y−2z=−8

4(6-2y) -y -2 = 8  

24 -8y-y -2z = 8

-9y -2z = -32

−2(6-2y)+4z=−4

-12 +4y +4z = -4

4y+4z = 8

Divide by 4

y+z = 2

z =2-y

Substitute this into -9y -2z = -32

-9y -2(2-y) = -32

-9y -4 +2y = -32

-7y -4 = -32

-7y =-28

y =4

Now find z

z = 2-y

z = 2-4

z = -2

Now find x

x = 6 -2y

x = 6 -2(4)

x =6-8

x = -2

Answer:

The value of e is -1 and f is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are :

[tex]2e - 3f = 4 - - - (1)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 5f = 8 - - - (2)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 3f - 2e - ( - 5f) = 4 - 8[/tex]

[tex]2f = - 4[/tex]

[tex]f = - 4 \div 2[/tex]

[tex]f = - 2[/tex]

[tex]substitute \: f = - 2 \: into \: (1)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 3( - 2) = 4[/tex]

[tex]2e + 6 = 4[/tex]

[tex]2e = 4 - 6[/tex]

[tex]2e = - 2[/tex]

[tex]e = - 2 \div 2[/tex]

[tex]e = - 1[/tex]

To solve this system of equations by addition, our first goal is to cancel

out one of the variables by adding the two equations together.

However, before we add, we need to cancel out a variable.

I would choose to cancel out the e's.

To do this, we need a 2e and a -2e and

here we have a 2e in both equations.

If we multiply the second equation by -1 however,

that will give us the -2e we are looking for.

So we have (-1)(2e - 3f) = (4)(-1).

So rewriting both equations, our first equation stays the same

but our second equation becomes -2e + 3f = -4.

Notice that every term in the second

equation has been multiplied by -1.

2e - 3f = 4

-2e + 5f = -8

Now when we add the equations together,

the e's cancel and we have 2f = -4 so f = -2.

To find e, plug -2 back in for f in the

first equation to get 2e - 3(-2) = 4.

Solving from here, e = -1.

Note that e comes before f in our final answer, (-1, -2).

To determine which variable should go first

in your answer, use alphabetical order.

Answer:

11 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The important thing to note here is that the backyard is a square. Since it's a square, all of its sides all equivalent in length. Thus, let's find the length of the sides. To do this, we use the area formula.

The formula for the area of a square is:

[tex]A=n^2[/tex]

Where n is a side. Since we know the area already, we can find n. Find n:

[tex]121=n^2\\n=11[/tex]

Since every side in a square are equivalent, all sides are 11 meters in length.

Therefore, each section of the fence should be 11 meters long.

Step-by-step explanation:

put the liketerms together

x+35= -7

x=-35-7

note*the operation sign changes after crossing the equal sign

x= -42

=============================================

Explanation:

The original equation is in the form a+b = 1, where

a = sin(theta)

b = cos(theta)

Square both sides of a+b = 1 to get

(a+b)^2 = 1^2

a^2+2ab+b^2 = 1

(a^2+b^2)+2ab = 1

From here notice that a^2+b^2 is sin^2+cos^2 = 1, which is the pythagorean trig identity. So we go from (a^2+b^2)+2ab = 1 to 1+2ab = 1 to 2ab = 0 to ab = 0

Therefore,

sin(theta)*cos(theta) = 0

Answer:

sin ∅ cos ∅ = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

(sin∅+cos∅)^2 = 1^2 = 1

(sin∅+cos∅)^2  = sin^2∅ + cos^2∅ + 2sin ∅ cos ∅ = 1

But  sin^2∅ + cos^2∅ = 1, so:  

2sin ∅ cos ∅ + 1 = 1

2 sin ∅ cos ∅ = 1 - 1 = 0

sin ∅ cos ∅ = 0.

Answer:

232 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.

At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:

64/(88 + c) = 1/5

Cross-multiply:

88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320

c = 320 - 88 = 232

Thus, the answer is 232 cars.

Note: as 232 doesn't show up in the answer choices, it's possible that the problem was copied correctly.

Answer:

The original number could be 85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 digits be x and y.

Let the number be xy then, assuming that x is the larger digit:

x - y = 3.

x = y + 3

Also

10y + x + 10x + y = 143

Substituting for x:

10y + y + 3 + 10(y + 3) + y = 143

22y + 33 = 143

22y = 110

y = 5.

So x = y + 3 = 8.

Answer:

➥ 10(x + 3) + x + 10x + x + 3 = 143

➥ 10x + 30 + 12x + 3 = 143

➥ 22x + 33 = 143

➥ 22x = 143 - 33

➥ 22x = 110

➥ x = 110/22

➥ x = 5

The unit digit number = x = 5

The tens digit number = x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

The original number = 10(x + 3) + x

The original number = 10(5 + 3) + 5

The original number = 50 + 30 + 5

The original number = 85

Hence,the original number is 85.

Answer:

  (a)  (x -3)^2 = -6(y +5.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola can be written as ...

  (x -h)^2 = 4p(y -k)

where (h, k) is the vertex, and p is the distance from the focus to the vertex.

The vertex is half-way between the focus and directrix, so is ...

  (h, k) = (1/2)((3, -7) +(3, -4)) = (3, -5.5)

The focus is at y=-7, and the vertex is at y=-5.5, so the distance between them is ...

  -7 -(-5.5) = -1.5

Then the equation for the parabola is ...

  (x -3)^2 = 4(-1.5)(y -(-5.5))

  (x -3)^2 = -6(y +5.5) . . . . matches the first choice

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set T{X: 2<x ≤ 9} where x is an integer, the element of the set T will be {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}.  note that from the inequality set 2<x ≤ 9, x is not equal to 2 but greater than 2. The inequality can be divided into two as shown;

If 2<x ≤ 9 then 2<x and x≤9

If 2<x, this means x>2 but not equal to 2. This is the reason why 2 is not contained in the set T.

Similarly if x≤9, this shows that x can not be greater than 9 but less than or equal to 9.

Since the set T =  {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}, we are to find n(T). n(T) means cardinality of the set T and cardinality of a set is defined as the total number of element in a set.

Hence n()n(T) = 7 (since there are 7 elements in the set T)
