A 13 foot ladder is placed
5 feet away from a wall
How many feet up the wall
will the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 12 feet up

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem models a right triangle, in which the ladder is the hypotenuse and the distance away from the wall is one of the legs.  Thus, you may use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\5^2+b^2=13^2\\25+b^2=169\\b^2=144\\b=12[/tex]

N.B. There are some very useful sets of numbers that can help you with this unit.

They are called Pythagorean triplets, and they are the sets of whole numbers that make right triangles.  The important ones are 3, 4, 5, and 5, 12, 13 (And their multiples, like 6, 8, 10(3,4,5 *2))

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate further.

For questions 3 - 6, find F'(x), the inverse of F(x).

3. F(x) = x-10

4. F (x) = x/6 + 3

5. F(x) = 3x + 7

6. F(x) = 8x

Answers

Answer:

3)  f'(x) = x + 10

4)  f'(x) = 6x - 18

5)  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f'(x)=\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{7}{3}}[/tex] or  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f'(x)=\frac{x - 7}{3}}[/tex]

6)  f'(x) = ⅛x  or  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f'(x)=\frac{x}{8}}[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

3. f(x) = x - 10

Step 1: In order to find the inverse function of f(x) = x - 10, start by replacing f(x) with y.  

y = x - 10

Step 2:  Switch x and y:

x = y - 10

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides to isolate y:

x + 10 = y - 10 + 10

x + 10 = y

Step 4: Replace y with f'(x):

f'(x) = x + 10  ⇒ This is the inverse function of f(x).

4.  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f(x)=\:\frac{x}{6}\:+\:3}[/tex]

Replace f(x) with y:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{y=\:\frac{x}{6}\:+\:3}[/tex]

Switch x and y:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{x=\:\frac{y}{6}\:+\:3}[/tex]

Subtract 3 from both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{x-3=\:\frac{y}{6}\:+\:3-3}[/tex][tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{x-3=\:\frac{y}{6}}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 6 to isolate y:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{6(x-3)=\:\frac{y}{6}(6)}[/tex]

6x - 18 = y

Replace y with f'(x):

f'(x) = 6x - 18  ⇒ This is the inverse function of f(x).

5. f(x) = 3x + 7

Replace f(x) with y:

y = 3x + 7

Switch x and y:

x = 3y + 7

Subtract 7 from both sides:

x - 7 = 3y + 7 - 7

x - 7 = 3y

Multiply both sides by :

⅓(x - 7) = 3y (⅓)

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{7}{3}=y}[/tex]

Replace y with f'(x):

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f'(x)=\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{7}{3}}[/tex]  or  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f'(x)=\frac{x - 7}{3}}[/tex]   ⇒ This is the inverse function of f(x).

6. f(x) = 8x

Replace f(x) with y:

y = 8x

Switch x and y:

x = 8y

Multiply both sides by :

⅛(x) = ⅛(8y)

⅛x = y or  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{x}{8}=y}[/tex]  

Replace y with f'(x):

f'(x) = ⅛x  or [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{f'(x)=\frac{x}{8}}[/tex]   ⇒ This is the inverse function of f(x).

A 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of teenagers who have been to a professional sporting event is
(0.289, 0.416). Is it reasonable to believe that more than 25% of teenagers have been to a professional sporting
event?
O Yes, because 0.3525 is in the interval.
O Yes, because the entire interval is greater than 0.25.
O No, because there are values in the interval greater than 0.3525.
O No, because the center of the interval is 0.3525, which is not statistically greater than 0.25.

Answers

Using the given confidence interval, it is found that the correct option is:

Yes, because the entire interval is greater than 0.25.

The 95% confidence interval is (0.289, 0.416).

Since the lower bound of the interval, which is of 0.289, is greater than 0.25, the belief is reasonable.

Using the above justification, the correct option is:

Yes, because the entire interval is greater than 0.25.

To find the area of a cylinder, we multiply the area of the base times it’s height. For a cylinder the base is a circle so we use

A water tank is 50cm by 30cm by 20cm. If 1 litre of water costs 300 taka, what is the total cost to fill up the tank with water?

Answers

50 x 30 x 20 = 30000 cm cubed
There are 1000 cm cubes in one litre
30000/1000 = 30 litres
So 300 x 30
9000 taka

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the tank= (50x30X20) cm^3

                                       = 30000cm^3

                                       = 30 l

1 l costs 300 tk

therefore 30 l costs= 30X300 taka

                                = 90000 taka

If f(x) = g(x)

Then :

(x-4)/(x²+1) = (x² - 4) / (x²+ 1)

We can simplify on both sides by x² + 1 :

x - 4 = x² - 4

x = x²

x - x² = 0

x(1-x) = 0

So either x = 0, or x = 1

x + 4 = e^(2y)

ln (x + 4) = ln (e^(2y))

ln (x + 4) = 2y

Answer:

in 8 years both school will have 650 students

Step-by-step explanation:

HS A (t) = 250+50t

HSB (t) = 450+25t

250 + 50t = 450 + 25t

25t=200

t=8

in 8 years

to graph this:

HSA points (0,250) (2, 350) (4, 450) (8, 650)(10, 750)

HSB points (0, 450) ( 2, 500) (4, 550) (8, 650) (10, 700)

when you graph then you will notice they intercept at 8, which gives you 650 students
