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.

Isosceles trapezoid ABCD has legs If AB = 6y – 3, BC = 4y – 5, and CD = 7y – 18, find the value of y
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The value of y is y=15

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

AB = 6y – 3, BC = 4y – 5, and CD = 7y – 18

We define the isosceles trapezoid as it has two opposites parallel, the two other opposites legs are equal and also the diagonals are equal.

Here AB = CD

6y-3 = 7y-18

Combine the like terms:

18-3 = 7y-6y

15 = y

It means the value of y is  y=15....

PLEASE HELP!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!<br><br><br><br><br><br> Only need 4b and 4c
JulsSmile [24]

ANSWER:

b) No

c) Yes

EXPLANATION:

3 (x+1)=3x+3

b)

3 (-8 + 1) = 3 x -8 + 3

(3 x -8) (3 x +1) = 3 x -8 + 3     (just put left and right sides into calcu separately)

-72 = -21

Both sides are not equal and therefore it isn't a solution.

c)

3 (0.5 + 1) = 3 x 0.5 + 3

(3 x 0.5) (3 x +1) = 3 x 0.5 + 3

4.5 = 4.5

Both sides are equal and thereofre it IS a solution.
