The equation would be x+5*-2=6.

The result of that equation would be x=16

X+5-(-2)=6
Subtract 5 from 5 and 6 which will give you x+(-2)=6 then subtract -2 which gives you x=8

The Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy was built between 1173 and 1350. A. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the yellow
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image of the leaning tower of Pisa, we can see that it passes through the point (7.75, 0) and (10.75, 42).

a) The equation of a line in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the intercept. Also, the equation of line passing through

(x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)\ is:\\\\y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)

Hence since it passes through  (7.75, 0) and (10.75, 42), the equation is:

y-0=\frac{42-0}{10.75-7.75} (x-7.75)\\\\y=14(x-7.75)\\\\y=14x-108.5

b) When the tower is 56 meters tall, i.e. y = 56, we need to find the value of x:

y = 14x - 108.5

56 = 14x - 108.5

56 + 108.5 = 14x

164.5=14x

x = 164.5/14

x = 11.75

When the tower is 56 meters tall, the top of the tower is 11.75 m off center

What is the true solution to the logarithmic equation below? log Subscript 4 Baseline left-bracket log Subscript 4 Baseline (2 x
Luda [366]

Step-by-step explanation:

log_4(log_4 2x)=1 \\  \\  \therefore \: log_4 2x =  {4}^{1}  \\  \\ \therefore \: log_4 2x =4 \\  \\ \therefore \: 2x =  {4}^{4}  \\  \\ \therefore \: 2x = 256 \\  \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{256}{2}  \\  \\ \therefore \: x = 128

These two triangles are similar. What are a and b? Note: the two figures are not drawn to scale. Please help with this!!!
sesenic [268]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • a = 6
  • b = 22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of smallest sides in the two triangles is ...

  smaller / larger = 4/10

To find A and B, we write proportions involving corresponding side lengths.

__

Side A in the smaller triangle is ...

  A/15 = 4/10

  A = (4/10)(15) = 6

__

The ratio of larger to smaller is the inverse of the above ratio, so ...

  B/9 = 10/4

  B = (10/4)(9) = 22.5

A 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour.if electricity costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour how much does
Ksivusya [100]
A 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour.if electricity costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour. Let's solve how much does it cost to have a bulb on for an hour. => 120 watt = 0.1 kilowatt per hour which costs 0.20 per kilowatt per => 0.1 kilowatt per hour * 0.20 = 0.02 dollars in an hour.
