14 feet tall is the answer to this question

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem to answer this question. Kevin is 6 feet away from the wall and the wall is 8 feet tall. You then draw a right triangle and label it with sides a and b which in this case is 6 and 8. The equation for the Pythagorean Theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2 putting the knowing information in it becomes 8^2+6^2=c^2. You can then plug this into a calculator and get 100. We are not done yet, you then want to square root 100 and get 10. This is how long the ladder has to be so Kevin can get over the wall. Look at the picture I posted with this if you want a better understanding.

The limit does not exist. There are infinitely many infinite discontinuities at x=n\pi, where n\in\Bbb N. The function oscillates wildly between negative and positive infinity.

andre [41]

Answer:

37=5x-2y,\,1=5x-2y

Step-by-step explanation:

If (x_1,y_1),\,(x_2,y_2),\,(x_3,y_3) are coordinates of a triangle then area of a triangle is equal to \frac{1}{2}|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)|

Let point P be (x,y)

Put (x_1,y_1)=(5,3),\,(x_2,y_2)=(3,-2),\,(x_3,y_3)=(x,y)

Area of a triangle = \frac{1}{2}|5(-2-y)+3(y-3)+x(3+2)|

=\frac{1}{2}|-10-5y+3y-9+5x|\\\\=\frac{1}{2}|-19+5x-2y|

Also,

Area of a triangle = 9 square units

9=\frac{1}{2}|-19+5x-2y|\\\\18=|-19+5x-2y|

±18 = -19 + 5x - 2y

18=-19+5x-2y,\,-18=-19+5x-2y\\\\37=5x-2y,\,1=5x-2y

Consider the line 7x+4y= 3. What is the slope of a line parallel to this line? What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

1) -7/4

2) 4/7

3) -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A parallel line would have the same gradient so:

4y = -7x +3
y =\frac{-7}{4}x  +\frac{3}{4}

So a parallel line would have the gradient of \frac{-7}{4}.

2) A perpendicular line would have the inverse reciprocal of the gradient so multiplying the 2 gradients would equal -1 so:

Initially Gradient = -7/4

-7/4 x Perpendicular line = -1

Perpendicular line = -1 x 4/-7

Perpendicular line = 4/7

3) Using the same principle, the perpendicular gradient would be -1/5x
