Answer:

14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on the triangle, and temporarily neglect the 2 ft measurement at the top of the triangle.  Then the 2 legs of the triangle have lengths h - 2 ft and 5 ft, and the hypotenuse is 13.

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem, we get:

13^2 =  (h - 2)^2 + 5^2, or

169 = h^2 - 4h + 4 + 25, or

144 = h^2 - 4h + 4, or

140 = h^2 - 4h, or, finally,

h^2 - 4h - 140 = 0.  We must find the value of h.

I graphed this function on a calculator and found that -10 is a zero.  Thus, the function factors into (h + 10)(h - 14) = 0, or h = 14.

The total height of the piece of plywood is 14 ft.

Check this:  does a right triangle with legs (14 - 2) and 5 have a hypotenuse of 13?  Yes.

Answer:

4x² -29x +51

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x-3 where x is in the original function definition, then "simplify". I think you'll find it convenient to rewrite the original function definition first.

... g(x) = 4x² -5x = x(4x -5)

Substituting, we have

... g(x-3) = (x -3)(4(x -3) -5)

... = (x -3)(4x -17) . . . . . simplify right factor

... = 4x² -12x -17x +51

... g(x -3) = 4x² -29x +51

1/2+1/4=____ and 1/12 + 1/6=___ and 1/4+1/6+1/12=_____ . explain
BlackZzzverrR [31]
1/2+ 1/4
= 2/4+ 1/4
= 3/4

1/12+ 1/6
= 1/12+ 2/12
= 3/12
= 1/4

Therefore, 1/4+ 1/6+ 1/12
= (1/12+ 1/6)+ (1/12+ 1/6)
= 2*(1/12+ 1/6)
= 2* (1/4)
= 2/4
= 1/2

Hope this helps~
