Answer:

The path is 17 ft long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>c</em> represent the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle, and let <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> represent the lengths of its legs, as pictured in the image below.

The relationship involving the legs and hypotenuse of the right triangle, given by

a^2+b^2=c^2

is called the Pythagorean Theorem.

The diagonal of the rectangle is equivalent to finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 8 feet wide and 15 feet long.

Applying the Pythagoras' Theorem, we get

d^2=(8)^2+(15)^2\\d^2=64+225\\d^2=289\\d=\sqrt{289}=17

Technically, there are two answers to d^2=289, i.e., d = 17 or d = -17. However, d represents the hypotenuse of the right triangle and must be non-negative. Hence, we must choose d = 17.

The path is 17 ft long.

Task 1:
OleMash [197]

Answer:

maximum height is 4.058 metres

Time in air = 0.033 second

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the equation height h

h = -212t^2 + 7t + 4

What is the toy's maximum height?

Let us assume that the equation is a perfect parabola

Time t at Maximum height will be

t = -b/2a

Where b = 7 and a = - 212

t = -7/ - 212 ×2

t = 7/ 424 = 0.0165s

Substitute t in the main equation

h = - 212(7/424)^2 + 7(7/424) + 4

h = - 0.05778 + 0.115567 + 4

h = 4.058 metres

Therefore the maximum height is 4.058 metres

How long is the toy in the air?​

The object will go up and return to the ground.

At ground level, h = 0

-212t^2 + 7t + 4 = 0

212t^2 - 7t - 4 = 0

You can factorize the above equation and pick the positive time t since time can't be negative

Or

Since we have assumed that it's a perfect parabola,

Total time in air = (-b/2a) × 2

Time in air = 0.0165 × 2 = 0.033 s

Select the correct answer. Consider the function f(x) = x2 and the function g(x) shown below. How will the graph of g(x) differ
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

just think logically about it.

you take f(x) (which stands for the result value y, you know that), do not change f(x) in any way but add finally 5 to every y value created.

there is no other effect than moving the whole f(x) curve up by 5 units, because every y value is now bigger by 5 units.
