the base of a 15 ft ladder is 12 feet from the base of a building. a 25 foot ladder rests against the building at the same angle. how high up the wall does the 25 foot ladder reach

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The ladder reaches [tex]15ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first case we have

[tex]cos\theta =\frac{12}{15}[/tex]

In second case let the height be [tex]x[/tex]

We have

[tex]sin\theta =\frac{x}{25}[/tex]

We know that

[tex]cos\theta =\frac{12}{15}\\\\sin\theta =\sqrt{1-\frac{12^{2}}{15^{2}} } \\\\sin\theta =\sqrt{\frac{81}{225} } \\\\sin\theta =\frac{9}{15} }[/tex]

Substituting

[tex]\frac{9}{15} =\frac{x}{25}\\\\x=\frac{25\times9}{15} =15[/tex]

The ladder reaches [tex]15ft[/tex]

Answers:

<-6,8> <-3,3> <12,12> <21,4> <18,22> <17,30> <-36,-38> <16,20>

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

Work Shown:

Problem 1

u = <-3,4>

2u = 2*<-3,4>

2u = <2(-3), 2(4)>

2u = <-6,8>

Effectively, we multiplied each coordinate by 2.

-----------------

Problem 2

g = <-1,1>

3g = 3*<-1,1>

3g = <3(-1),3(1)>

3g = <-3,3>

Same idea as problem 1, but we tripled each coordinate.

-----------------

Problem 3

z = <-3,-3>

-4z = -4*<-3,-3>

-4z = <-4(-3),-4(-3)>

-4z = <12,12>

-----------------

Problem 4

v = <6,8>

2v = <12,16> .... double both coordinates

u = <-3,4>

3u = <-9,12> .... triple both coordinates

2v-3u = <12,16>-<-9,12>

2v-3u = <12-(-9),16-12>

2v-3u = <12+9,16-12>

2v-3u = <21,4>

I subtracted the corresponding coordinates.

The general rule is <a,b>-<c,d> = <a-c,b-d>

-----------------

Problem 5

y = <1,1>

6y = <6,6> .... multiply each coordinate by 6

v = <6,8>

2v = <12,16>

6y+2v = <6,6>+<12,16> = <6+12,6+16> = <18,22>

This time we add the corresponding coordinates after scaling up the given vectors.

The general rule is <a,b>+<c,d> = <a+c,b+d>

-----------------

Problem 6

u = <-3,4>

v = <6,8>

3v = <18,24>

y = <1,1>

2y = <2,2>

u+3v+2y = <-3,4>+<18,24>+<2,2>

u+3v+2y = <-3+18+2,4+24+2>

u+3v+2y = <17,30>

-----------------

Problem 7

g = <-1,1>

4g = <-4,4>

y = <1,1>

A = 4g+y = <-4,4>+<1,1> = <-4+1,4+1> = <-3,5>

z = <-3,-3>

v = <6,8>

5v = <30,40>

B = z-5v = <-3,-3> - <30,40> = <-3-30,-3-40> = <-33,-43>

A+B = <-3,5>+<-33,-43> = <-36,-38>

-----------------

Problem 8

u = <-3,4>

v = <6,8>

2v = <12,16>

A = u+2v = <-3,4>+<12,16> = <-3+12,4+16> = <9,20>

w = <8,-1>

g = <-1,1>

B = w+g = <8,-1>+<-1,1> = <8+(-1),-1+1> = <7,0>

A+B = <9,20>+<7,0> = <9+7,20+0> = <16,20>

it takes 5 days to repair 1250 meters of road.

At this rate, how many days will it take to repair 8 kilometers of road?

Answers

Answer:

2000 Meters

Step-by-step explanation:

First, DIvide 1250 by 5 and you get 250. Multiply by 8 and you get 2000.

The answer is 32 days

8 kilometres is 8000 meters

We know that 1250 meters takes 5 days, so we can work out how many times 1250 goes into 8000 to find out how many times longer it will take


8000 / 1250 is 6.4

It will take 6.4 times longer to produce 8km

6.4 x 5 is 32

32 days

is 4y=16x a Direct variation

Answers

In the given equation, as the value of y increase, the value of x also

increases.

Yes, 4·y = 16·x is a direct variation

Reasons:

A direct variation is a relationship that exists between two variables. It is

also known as a direct proportion which can be expressed as; y = k·x

Where k is a number

The given equation is 4·y = 16·x

Dividing both sides by 4 gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4 \cdot y}{4} = \frac{16 \cdot x}{4} = \frac{4 \times 4 \cdot x}{4}[/tex]

Which gives;

y = 4·x

Comparing the above equation with the equation for a direct variation gives;

y = 4·x

y = k·x

Therefore;

k = 4

The equation, y = 4·x, and therefore, the equation from which it is derived, 4·y = 16·x, is a direct variation.

Evaluate the function.

f(x)=-3x^2-20

Find f(−7)

Answers

Answer:

Answer: f(-7) = -167

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]{ \tt{f(x) = - {3x}^{2} - 20}}[/tex]

• When x is -7, f(x) is f(-7):

[tex]{ \tt{f( {}^{ - }7) = {}^{ - } 3( { {}^{ - }7) }^{2} - 20 }} \\ \\ { \tt{f( {}^{ - } 7) = ( {}^{ - } 3 \times 49) - 20}} \\ \\{ \tt{ f( {}^{ - }7) = {}^{ - } 147 - 20 }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \tt{f( {}^{ - }7) = {}^{ - } 167 }}}[/tex]

Based on the calculations, the evaluation of this function is equal to -167.

Given the following data:

[tex]f(x)=-3x^2-20[/tex]

How to evaluate a function.

In this exercise, you're required to evaluate the given function. This ultimately implies that, we would substitute the vale of x into the function as follows.

Note: The value of x is equal to -7.

Substituting the given parameter into the function, we have;

[tex]f(-7)=-3(-7)^2-20\\\\f(-7)=-3(49)-20\\\\f(-7)=-147-20[/tex]

f(-7) = -167.

Michael is packing books into boxes. Each box can hold either 15 small books or

and graph a system of linear inequalities to represent the situation

Answers

Let x equal the number of tiny book boxes and y equal the number of large book boxes.

Because John must pack at least 35 boxes:

(number of tiny book boxes) + (number of large book boxes) = (at least) 35

x + y ≥ 35

 

Since John needs to pack at least 350 books:

 

(number of small books packed) + (number of large books packed) (is at least) 350

(number of small books per box)(number of boxes of small books) + (number of large books per box)(number of boxes of small books) ≥ 350

15x + 8y ≥ 350

 

Your system of inequalities is:

 

x + y ≥ 35

15x + 8y ≥ 350
