The height of the pole is 12.5 feet.

<h3>What is Unitary method?</h3>

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Given:

Cindy's shadow is 5 feet.

length of the shadow of the pole at the same time, she finds it to be 12.5 feet.

So,

12.5/5=x/5,

62.5=5x

x= 12.5 feet.

Hence, the height of the pole is 12.5 feet.

(5,12)and (2,6) rate of change?<br> Initial value?<br> HURRY i NEED this done.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Part 1) The rate of change is 2

Part 2) The initial value is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope or rate of change

b is the y-intercept or initial value

step 1

Find the slope or rate of change

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have the points

(5,12)and (2,6)

substitute the values in the formula

m=\frac{6-12}{2-5}

m=\frac{-6}{-3}

m=2

therefore

The rate of change is 2

step 2

Find the initial value

we have

m=2

point\ (2,6)

substitute in the equation y=mx+b

6=2(2)+b

solve for b

6=4+b

b=2 ---> initial value

The linear equation is equal to

y=2x+2

The y-intercept or initial value is 2

Solve 1/5x+3=10. Show all work and check it
iren2701 [21]
1/5x + 3 = 10

Subtract by 3 on both sides. 

1/5x = 7.

Now to isolate the variable, flip the coefficient in front of the variable and multiply both sides by it. 

5(1/5x) = 7(5)

x = 7(5)
x = 35

Now to check:

1/5(35) + 3 = 10

35/5 + 3 = 10

35/5 is 7.

7 + 3 = 10

10 = 10

Write the expression as either the sine, cosine, or tangent of a single angle.
olya-2409 [2.1K]
There exists a trigonometric identity which states that,
                  sin (A - B) = sin A cos B - cos A sin B
This is very similar to the given expression with A equal to 57° and B equal to 13°. The simplified form of the angle is,
                                 sin (57° - 13°) = sin 44°
