Algebraically find the point where the cable and the strut intersect. Interpret your answer. (10 points)

√2x+8=x-8

2x+8=x^2-16x+64

-x^2+18x-56=0

x^2-18x+56=0

x(x-4)-14(x-4)=0

(X-4)(x-14)=0

x=4(extraneous) ,x=14

—> x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

√2x+8=x-8

2x+8=x^2-16x+64

-x^2+18x-56=0

x^2-18x+56=0

x(x-4)-14(x-4)=0

(X-4)(x-14)=0

x=4(extraneous) ,x=14

—> x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

15% chance.

step-by-step explanation:

3/10 times, the 5 year old will get a tablet. 5/10 times, the 13 yer old will get a tablet. multiply both fractions to get 15/100 times, both would have a tablet.

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
