A 4 metre ladder is placed against a vertical wall.
The base of the ladder is 1.5 metres from the base of the wall.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Original position: base is 1.5 meters away from the wall and the vertical distance from the top end to the ground let it be y and length of the ladder be L.

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagorean theorem, L^2=y^2+(1.5)^2=y^2+2.25 Eq1.

Final position: base is 2 meters away, and the vertical distance from top end to the ground is y - 0.25 because it falls down the wall 0.25 meters and length of the ladder is also L.

By pythagorean theorem, L^2=(y -0.25)^2+(2)^2=y^2–0.5y+ 0.0625+4=y^2–0.5y+4.0625 Eq 2.

Equating both Eq 1 and Eq 2: y^2+2.25=y^2–0.5y+4.0625

y^2-y^2+0.5y+2.25–4.0625=0

0.5y- 1.8125=0

0.5y=1.8125

y=1.8125/0.5= 3.625

Using Eq 1: L^2=(3.625)^2+2.25=15.390625, L=(15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

Using Eq 2: L^2=(3.625)^2–0.5(3.625)+4.0625

L^2=13.140625–0.90625+4.0615=15.390625

L= (15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

Answers

Answer:  9/41

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

Explanation:

We have a triangle with these three sides.

a = 80b = unknownc = 82

Use the pythagorean theorem to find b

a^2+b^2 = c^2

b = sqrt(c^2 - a^2)

b = sqrt(82^2 - 80^2)

b = sqrt(324)

b = 18

This is the missing vertical leg of the triangle. And this is also the side opposite angle C.

We have enough information to compute the sine of the angle.

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(C) = AB/AC

sin(C) = 18/82

sin(C) = (9*2)/(41*2)

sin(C) = 9/41

Plug in x = 0

Now use the average rate of change formula

[tex]m = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\\\m = \frac{f(8)-f(0)}{8-0}\\\\m = \frac{15/29 - (-1/5)}{8}\\\\m = \frac{15/29 + 1/5}{8}\\\\m = \frac{(15/29)*(5/5) + (1/5)*(29/29)}{8}\\\\m = \frac{75/145 + 29/145}{8}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{104/145}{8}\\\\m = \frac{104}{145} \div \frac{8}{1}\\\\m = \frac{104}{145} \times \frac{1}{8}\\\\m = \frac{104*1}{145*8}\\\\m = \frac{104}{1160}\\\\m = \frac{13}{145}\\\\[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

-2

(0, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Giveb the function :

F(x) = 3^x + 1 – 2

To obtain the asymptote, take the limit of f(x) as x as tends to ∞

3^(∞+1) - 2 = 0 - 2

Hence,

y = 0 - 2.

y = - 2

The y intercept, this is the value of y when x = 0

Hence, put x = 0

F(0) = 3^(0 + 1) – 2

f(0) = 3^1 - 2

f(0) = 3 - 2

f(0) = 1

Y - intercept = (0, 1)

Hi,

we need to substitute 4 and 1 in the equation, so for every y, we replace it with a 1 and every X with 4 as X= 4, Y = 1

equation: X + X (X + Y) + Y

equation after substituting the numbers: 1 + 1 (1 + 4) + 1

Bidmas rules apply.

expand the bracket first. 1 (1 + 4)=

1 X 1= 1

1 X 4= 4

1 + 4 = 5

then the equation becomes: 1 + 5 + 1= 7

your answer is 7 if you want to evaluate it.

your answer is 1 + 1 (1 + 4) + 1 if you need the equation.

Use substitution to solve the following system of equations. What is the value of y?

Answers

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the second equation:

2x - y = 2 ⇒ y = 2x - 2

Substitute this into first equation:

3x + 4(2x - 2) = 363x + 8x - 8 = 3611x = 44x = 4

Now find y:

y = 2*4 - 2 y = 8 - 2y = 6

It is given that,

→ 2x - y = 2

Convert the equation as,

→ y = 2x - 2

First we should,

find the required value of x.

→ 3x + 4(2x - 2) = 36

→ 3x + 8x - 8 = 36

→ 11x = 44

→ [x = 4]

Let's find the required value of y,

→ y = 2x - 2

→ y = (2 × 4) - 2

→ y = 8 - 2

→ [y = 6]

Therefore, the value of y is 6.

D. None of the above​

Answers

Given:

The graph of a scatter plot.

To find:

The function that best fits the given points.

Solution:

From the given graph it is clear that the linear function is the best fit for the given points because the points lie on a straight line or near to it.

So, options B and C are incorrect because they represent exponential and quadratic function respectively.

Let as assume the two points on the graph are (0.80,-12.82) and (2,-12.79).

Using this two points, the equation of line is:

[tex]y-(-12.82)=\dfrac{-12.79-(-12.82)}{2-0.80}(x-0.80)[/tex]

[tex]y+12.82=\dfrac{-12.79+12.82}{2-0.80}(x-0.80)[/tex]

[tex]y+12.82=0.025(x-0.80)[/tex]

[tex]y+12.82=0.025x-0.02[/tex]

[tex]y=0.025x-0.02-12.82[/tex]

[tex]y=0.025x-12.84[/tex]

[tex]y=-12.84+0.025x[/tex]

It is the approximate function to the function that is in option A.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

At a tanning salon, customers are charged \$10 for their first visit in a calendar month and \$6 for each visit after that in the same calendar month. In the last calendar month, 100 customers visited the salon, of which 30 made a second visit, and 10 made a third visit. All other customers made only one visit. If those visits were the only source of revenue for the salon, what was the revenue for the last calendar month at the salon

Answers

Answer:

The salon would've made $1,240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the customers as the numbers and the visits as variables. Then the equation would look something like this:

Revenue = 100(first visit) + 30(second visit) + 10(third visit)

And now, we just solve:

r = 100(10) + 30(6) + 10(6)

r = 1,000 + 180 + 60

r = $1,240

simplify. multiply and remove all perfect squares from inside the square root. assume A is positive. 3 square root 5a times 8 square root 35a2

Where ([tex]h,k[/tex]) is the parabola's vertex and (a) is the stretch and compression factor. As one can see in the given graph, the parabola has a vertex at (0, 1), moreover, it passes through the point (1, 3). Substitute these points into the equation for the parabole, and simplify,

[tex]y=a(x-0)^2+1[/tex]
