Answer

14.4 ft~

Step-by-step explanation

A kite is flying 12 feet off the ground, therefore the height is 12 (assuming the line is tied to the ground if a person is holding the line then the height would be less)

Assuming the sun is positioned in such a way that the shadow represents a horizontal distance. Horizontal distance of shadow = 8

Use Pythagoras Theorem

Where a^2 + b^2 = c^2

8^2 + 12^2 = 208

Square root 208 = 14.4~

. 3. Which of these ordered pairs is a solution to the linear inequality y – 4x ≤ –6? . . (Points : 1). A) (–2, 4). B) (1, –2).
Vikki [24]
We may answer the question above by substituting the values of the coordinates of the points in the choices to the x and y of the inequality. 
A. (-2, 4)     4 - 4(-2) ≤ -6     12 ≤ -6   FALSE
B. (1, -2)     -2 - 4(1<span>) ≤ -6      -6 ≤ -6   TRUE
C (1, 3)        3</span> - 4(1<span>) ≤ -6      -1 ≤ -6   FALSE
D. (2, 3)       3</span> - 4(2<span>) ≤ -6      -5 ≤ -6   FALSE

The answer would be letter B. </span>

Answer:

Which of the following accurately depicts the transformation of y= x^2 to the function shown below? y=2(x-3)^2+5

A. Shift left 3 units, shrink vertically to 1/2 of the original height, then shift up 5 units.

B. Shift right 3 units, stretch vertically by a factor of 2, then shift up 5 units.

C. Shift up 3 units, stretch horizontally by a factor of 2, then shift left 5 units.

D. Shift 5 units right, stretch vertically by a factor of 3, then shift up 2 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

For f(x) = 4x+1 and g(x)= x^2-5, find (f/g) (x).
