The 9 foot center pole makes a right angle with the ground. If a rope goes from the top of the pole to a point on the ground 12 feet away from the base of the pole. how long of a rope is needed?

Answers

Answer 1

The length of the rope needed is 15 feet

Given the following parameters;

Height of the pole = 9 footThe distance from the rope away from the base of the pole is 12 feet

Required

Length of the rope.

To get the length of the rope, you will use the pythagoras theorem expressed as:

c² = a² + b²

Substituting the given parameters:

c² = 9² + 12²

c² =81 + 144

c² = 225

c = √225

c = 15 feet

Therefore the length of the rope needed is 15 feet

Question 16:

[tex]\alpha[/tex] and [tex]\beta[/tex] are the roots of the equation.

That means [tex](x-\alpha )(x-\beta ) = 2x^{2} -6x+5 = 0\\[/tex]

[tex](x-\alpha )(x-\beta ) = 2x^{2} -6x+5 = 0[/tex]

          [tex]2x^{2} -6x+5 = 0\\x^{2} -3x+\frac{5}{2} =0[/tex]

          [tex](x-\alpha )(x-\beta ) =x^{2} - (\alpha +\beta )x +\alpha \beta[/tex]

So,

[tex]x^{2} - (\alpha +\beta )x +\alpha \beta = x^{2} -3x+\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Compare coefficient

[tex]\alpha +\beta = 3\\\alpha \beta = \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Consider [tex]\frac{\beta }{\alpha } + \frac{\alpha }{\beta }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\beta }{\alpha } + \frac{\alpha }{\beta } =\frac{ \alpha ^{2} +\beta ^{2}}{\alpha \beta }[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{(\alpha +\beta )^{2} -2\alpha \beta }{\alpha \beta } \\= \frac{3^{2} -2*\frac{5}{2} }{\frac{5}{2} } \\= 4*\frac{2}{5} \\=\frac{8}{5}[/tex]

During a sale, a store offered a 30% discount on a bed that originally sold for $580 After the sale, the discounted price of the bed was marked up by 30%. What was the price of the bed after the markup ? Round to the nearest cent .

Answers

The price of the bed after the markup is $527.80.

The given parameters:

Discount = 30%Price of the bed, = $580Markup = 30%

The price of the bed after the discount of 30% is calculated as follows;

P = $580 - 0.3($580)

P = $406

The price of the bed after the markup is calculated as follows;

P = $406 + 0.3(406)

P = $527.8

Thus, the price of the bed after the markup is $527.80.

Four interior angles of a pentagon measure 88°, 118°, 132°, and 100°. What is the measure of the fifth interior angle? 82° 92° 102° 112°.

Answers

The measure of the fifth interior angle is 102 degrees.

A polygon is an object with five sides. It is made up of five straight edges and 5 interior angles. The sum of interior angles is 540 degrees.

In order to determine the fifth interior angle, the sum of the four interior angles would be subtracted from  sum of interior angles in a polygon.

Fifth interior angle = 540 - (88 + 132 + 100 + 118)

= 540 - 438

= 102 degrees

parallelnot perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

1) It appears that coordinates of points on line P are (-6, 6) and (-2, 8). The slope formula tells us the slope of line P is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) = (8 -6)/(-2 -(-6)) = 2/4 = 1/2

Coordinates on line O appear to be (0, 6) and (4, 8). Its slope is ...

  m = (8 -6)/(4 -0) = 2/4 = 1/2

The slopes of lines P and O are the same, so the lines are parallel.

__

2) It appears that points on line M are (0, 6) and (2, 2). Its slope is ...

  m = (2 -6)/(2 -0) = -4/2 = -2

Points on line K appear to be (0, 4) and (10, 10). Its slope is ...

  m = (10 -4)/(10 -0) = 6/10 = 3/5

If lines M and K were perpendicular, the product of their slopes would be -1. Here, it is (-2)(3/5) = -6/5 ≠ -1. Lines M and K are not perpendicular.
