Answer:

  16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem tells us the relationship between the various distances.

  EH² +HF² = EF²

  EH² + 12² = 20²

  EH² = 400 -144

  EH = √256 = 16

The hook is 16 feet below Edna.

Jarvis invested some money at 6% interest. Jarvis also invested $58 more than 3 times that amount at 9%. How much is invested at
DerKrebs [107]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • $3309 at 6%
  • $9985 at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent amounts invested at 6% and 9%, respectively.

  y = 3x +58 . . . . . . . the amount invested at 9%

  0.06x +0.09y = 1097.19 . . . . . . total interest earned

__

Substituting for y, we have ...

  0.06x +0.09(3x +58) = 1097.19

  0.33x + 5.22 = 1097.19 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.33x = 1091.97 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5.22

  x = 3309 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.33

  y = 3(3309) +58 = 9985

$3309 is invested at 6%; $9985 is invested at 9%.

Find the value of d that makes the equation true:
hichkok12 [17]
To answer this, you need to get "d" on one side by itself. To do this, add 8 to both sides of the equation.

d- 8 + 8 = 5 + 8
-8 and +8 cancel out leaving:
d = 13

Your answer is d = 13

Solve the following equation by first writing the equation in the form ax² = c
alexandr1967 [171]

The solution to the given equation is x = ±7. The correct option is d. x = ±7

<h3>Solving quadratic equations </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the solution to the given equation

The given equation is

x²-49 = 0

NOTE: I assumed the variable is x

Solving the equation

x²-49 = 0

Writing in the form ax²= c

x² = 49

∴ x = ±√49

x = ±7

Hence, the solution to the given equation is x = ±7
