Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angle triangle is formed

The length of the guy wire represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The ground distance between the guy wire and the pole represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

The height of the pole represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine the length of the wire, h, we would apply Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

h² = 6² + 4²

h² = 36 + 16 = 52

h = √52

h = 7.21 meters

Please answer me<br />bis two fifths of c.<br />4a = 30<br />Work out the ratio a:b:c<br />Give your ans
irina [24]

b is two fifths of c, so we make this a ratio with c = 1.

The ratio of b:c is 2/5 : 1

We also have 4a = 3c, rewrite this ratio so c is 1 by dividing both sides by 4,

so we get the ratio of a to c as 3/4 : 1

Now we get the a:b:c ratio of 3/4 : 2/5 : 1 now we can change the fractions to whole numbers, first by multiplying the 3 numbers by 4 to get get rid of the denominator of 4 in a:

3 : 8/5 : 4

Now multiply the 3 numbers by 5 to remove the denominator  of 5 in b:

15 : 8 : 20

Now we can check using the equations:

b is 2/5 of c:  20 x 2/5 = 40/5 = 8 This is true.

4a = 3c: 4(15) = 3(20) = 60 = 60, this is also true.

The ratios is 15 : 8: 20

Becky has been tracking the population of a town. The population was 5,340 last year and has been increasing by 1.75 times each
Scorpion4ik [409]
<span> the population grows at rate of 1.75
multiply it by this rate every year
As in year 3 it would be 5340(1.75)(1.75)(1.75) the function is 5340(1.75)^x
</span>f(x) = 5340(1.75)^x where 1.75 is the rate of growth 
so D is right answer
