The plane figure formed by the ground, the guy wire, and the tree is a right triangle with the hypotenuse equal to length of the guy wire. The angle given is an angle adjacent to 3.5 ft. Therefore, the most suitable trigonometric function for this is,
                                  cos (50°) = adjacent / hypotenuse
                                   cos 50° = 3.5 ft / hypotenuse
The value of the hypotenuse is 5.445 ft. 
Hence, the length of the guy wire is approximately 5.445 ft.

If one kilogram is 2.2 pounds how many kilograms would it make for 11 pounds
Mila [183]

Answer:

5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the rule of three.

In fact, we know that:

- 1 kilogram is equivalent to 2.2 pounds

- The ratio between the mass in kilograms and in pounds is constant for every value of the mass

- Therefore, the mass in kilograms corresponding to 11 pounds can be found by writing the following equation:

\frac{1 kg}{2.2 p}=\frac{x}{11 p}

Where

x is the mass in kilograms corresponding to 11 pounds.

Solving the equation for x, we find:

x=\frac{(11p)(1kg)}{2.2p}=5 kg

Find the domain of the function (ƒ • g)(x) where ƒ(x) = 2x2 + x, g(x) = 5x – 1
asambeis [7]

Not sure if that's a multiplication or a composition. It doesn't matter. Both f and g have a domain of all real numbers. The domain of

( f \circ g)(x)=f(g(x))

is the same as the domain of g(x), all real numbers

Answer: all real numbers
