It makes a 74 degree angle.

The sides of the triangle that are given are the side adjacent to the angle the ladder makes with the ground and the hypotenuse of the triangle.  

adjacent/hypotenuse is the ratio for cosine:

cos x = 7/25

To solve this, we will take the inverse cosine:

x = cos⁻¹(7/25) = 73.7 = 74

Bill is able to save $35/week after working part-time and paying his expenses. These two formulas show his weekly savings: f(1)
Umnica [9.8K]
1. We use the recursive formula to make the table of values:
f(1) = 35
f(2) = f(1) + f(2-1) = f(1) + f(1) = 35 + 35 = 70
f(3) = f(1) + f(3-1) = f(1) + f(2) = 35 + 70 = 105
f(4) = f(1) + f(4-1) = f(1) + f(3) = 35 + 105 = 140
f(5) = f(1) + f(5-1) = f(1) + f(4) = 35 + 140 = 175

2. We observe that the pattern is that for each increase of n by 1, the value of f(n) increases by 35. The explicit equation would be that f(n) = 35n. This fits with the description that Bill saves up $35 each week, thus meaning that he adds $35 to the previous week's value.

3. Therefore, the value of f(40) = 35*40 = 1400. This is easier than having to calculate each value from f(1) up to f(39) individually. The answer of 1400 means that Bill will have saved up $1400 after 40 weeks.

4. For the sequence of 5, 6, 8, 11, 15, 20, 26, 33, 41...
The first-order differences between each pair of terms is: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...since these differences form a linear equation, this sequence can be expressed as a quadratic equation. Since quadratics are functions (they do not have repeating values of the x-coordinate), therefore, this sequence can also be considered a function.

Sailors once used a unit of length called a fathom to measure the depth of the water. Each fathom is equal to 6 feet. Which equa
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

y = x*(6 feet/1 fathom)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the relation:

1 fathom = 6 feet.

We can write:

1 = (6 feet/1 fathom)

Now, remember that any number multiplied by 1 does not change.

Then suppose that we have a measure of 3 fathoms, then:

3 fathoms = (3 fathoms)*1

= (3 fathoms)*((6 feet/1 fathom)) = (3 fathoms/1 fathom)*(6feet)

= 3*(6 feet) = 18 feet.

So we changed the units by multiplying the original measure by  (6 feet/1 fathom)

Then, if x is the depth of water in fathoms and y is the depth of the water in feet, we can write:

y = x*(6 feet/1 fathom)
