Visualize the image in your mind and you can see that it forms a right angled triangle with a base,altitude and hypotenuse
base=2 feet
hypotenuse(ladder)=13 ft
We need to find the altitude,
By applying pythagoras theorem,
base square+altitude square=hypotenuse square
Take altitude as x
2 square+x square=13 square
4+x square=169
x square=169-4
x square=165
x= root of 165
x=12.8 feet(approx.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given polynomials are:
, and
Now we need to add the given polynomials, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. Also we need to write answer in descending powers of x.
So let's add them by combining like terms:
Hence final answer in descending order is
Answers
9(x + y)
(7 - a)(b)
The Distributive Property is used in algebraic expressions to multiply a
single term and two or more terms which are inside a set of parentheses.
In the case of x(2y), there is only
one term inside the parenthesis
In the case of 9(x ∙ y), the distributive
property is not used because (x ∙ y) = xy which means only one term will be
multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (9)
In the case of 9(x + y), the distributive
property is used because the two terms in the parenthesis (x and y) will be
multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (9)
9(x + y) = 9*x + 9*y (by applying the distributive property)
In the case of (7 ∙ a)(b), the distributive
property is not used because (7 ∙ a) = 7a which means only one term will be
multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (b)
In the case of (7 - a)(b), the distributive
property is used because the two terms in the parenthesis (7 and -a) will be
multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (b)
(7 - a)(b) = 7*b - a*b (by applying the distributive
property)
In the case of (2 ∙ x) ∙ y, the distributive
property is not used because (2 ∙ x) = 2x which means only one term will be
multiplied by the term outside the parenthesis (y)
parallel lines have the same slope
The slope-intercept form of a linear equatio is y=mx+b, where m stands for the "slope of the line" and b stands for the "y-intercept of the line"
They give you the equation y= -5/6x+3 Notice this is already on the slope-intercept form, so in this case the slope is -5/6 and the y-intercept is 3
You want an equation of the line that is parallel to the given line. The slopes must be the same, so m=-5/6
So far we have y=-5/6x + b
We don't have b yet but that can be found using the given point (6,-1) which tells you that "x is 6 when y is -1"
Replace that on the equation y=-5/6x + b and you get
-1 = (-5/6)(6) + b
-1 = -5 +b
4 = b
b = 4
We found b, or the y-intercept
Go back to the equation y = -5/6 x + b and replace this b with the b we just found
y = -5/6x + 4
