A Kite Flying In The Air Has An 11-ft Line Attached To It. Its Line Pulled Taut And Casts A 9 -ft Shadow.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

All we have to do is apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that +=

where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle or the side facing the 90° angle.

Moreover a & b are the other two sides of the triangle.

[tex]11 {}^{2} = {9}^{2} + h {}^{2} [/tex]

where h is the height from the ground

[tex]121 = 81 + {h}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]h {}^{2} = 121 - 81[/tex]

[tex]h {}^{2} = 40[/tex]

[tex]h = \sqrt{40} = 6.324[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest tenth,

[tex]h = 6.3[/tex]

Which is greater: 3x3/2 or 3X2/3 Why?

Answers

Answer:

3X3/2 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Go left to right and solve the equations.

Equation 1: 3 multiplied by 3 is 9. 9 divided by 2 is 4.5

Equation 2: 3 multiplied by 2 is 6. 6 divided by 3 is 2

Equation 1 yields a greater value.

Answer:

The 3x3/2 is greater than 3x2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a simple tip when solving these questions:

Decimal form is always great to use because you get the answer instantly instead of finding a common denominator while involving fractions.

Let's solve 3x3/2.

First, do 3x3 which is 9.

Your problem should be 9/2

Now, you could do this as a mixed number but like I said there shall be more work so you should do 9/2 on a calculator or divide but involve decimal point if you have a remainder.

9 divided by 2 is 4.5

9/2 is 4.5 (Above is the interpretation in words)

Next, do 3x2/3

The same thing as last, do 3x2 first.

Your problem should be 6/3  

If we know our division facts then 6 divided by 3 is 2.

Lastly, compare our numbers.

The 3x3/2 is 4.5 and the 3x2/3 is 2
Line the numbers up:

4.5

2.0

The tens digit clearly shows that 4 is greater than 2.

Therefore,

The 3x3/2 is greater than 3x2/3

B. y - 17= 1/4(x + 164)
C. y + 164= 1/4(x - 17)
D. y - 164= 1/4(x + 17)

Answers

I really think it’s c or d not to sure but it’s definitely not a sorry.but good luck

The Equation of line is  y + 17= 1/4(x - 164).

What is Slope?

A line's slope is determined by how its y coordinate changes in relation to how its x coordinate changes. y and x are the net changes in the y and x coordinates, respectively. Therefore, it is possible to write the

change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate as,

m = Δy/Δx where, m is the slope

Given:

X= 164, -8, 4, 164

Y= -99, -60, -57, -17

Using slope

= ( -17 + 57 )/ ( 164 - 4)

=  40/ (160)

=  1/4

So, Slope- intercept form

y + 17 = /4 ( x- 164)

Solve for x in the following numbers
4x squared + 1 =4x

Answers

Answer: x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: Set it equal to zero by subtracting 4x from both sides:

4x² - 4x + 1 = 0

Now, factor it:

(2x - 1)(2x - 1)

Set each one equal to zero, but since they’re the same, you only need to do it once:

2x - 1 = 0

Add 1 to both sides:

2x = 1

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 1/2

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2+1=4x

or,4x^2-4x+1=0

or,(2x)^2 - 2*2*x+(1)^2 =0

or,(2x-1)^2 =0

or,2x-1 =0

or,2x=1

What is the slope of the line defined by the equation 3x - 2y = 10 ?

Answer:

M=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to slope-intercept form.

subtract 3x from both sides:

3x-2y=10

-3x      -3x

the threes will cancel out leaving you with:

-2y=10-3x

then divide both sides by -2:

-2y=10-3x

-2y   -2

your twos will then cancel out leaving you with:

y=-5-3/2

your answer is then:

3/2

Angles 1 and 2 are a supplementary pair with the measure of angle 2 being six more than twice the measure of angle 1. What is the measure of angle 2?

Answers

Answer:

58° and 122°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 1st angle be 'a'.

2nd angle = 6 more than twice of a = 2a + 6.

Supplementary angles add upto 180°.

=> a + (2a + 6) = 180

=> a + 2a + 6 = 180

=> 3a + 6 = 180

=> 3a = 174

=> a= 174/3 = 58

Thus, angles are:

a = 58°.

2a + 6 = 2(58°) + 6 = 122°

What is the function?

Functions are the fundamental part of the calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input x.

Given that, an independent contractor he charges a $140 fee plus $25 per hour for each contract with the city.

Here, y represents the total amount he changes for a project and x represents the number of hours worked on a project.

Now, y=140+25x

Amount earned for 10 hours of work is

y=140+25×10

= 140+250

= $390

Therefore, the total amount earned in 10 hours of work is $390.
