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:

the answer is 200

step-by-step explanation:

the way the question is worded, it seems to imply the $264 interest is simple interest, not compound interest.

the simple interest for 2 years is $264; the simple interest for 1 year is $132.

$132 interest on a $600 investment means an interest rate of (132/600)*100 = 22%.

the value of $200 at 22% interest compounded annually for three years is

200%281.22%29%5e3

the amount of interest is that value, minus the original $200.

1696 hundred thousand
