Answer: The pole is 3.5 foot above the right hand.
To answer this question first you need to determine the left hand height/position. The left hand divides the pole segment into 2:1 ratio. If the pole if 15 foot long, then the equation will be:
2/(2+1)x 15 foot= 10 foot.

The left hand is located 10 foot from the ground and the right hand is 1.5 foot above it. Then the right hand position from the ground is:
10 foot+ 1.5 foot= 11.5 foot

Since the right hand is 11.5 foot from ground and the pole is 15 foot long, then the equation will be:
15 foot- 11.5 foot= 3.5 foot.

The mean cost for each item in his bag was $3.05. He bought a total of 8 items, and the prices of 7 of those items are listed be
Anna007 [38]

You know the mean cost is calculated from ...

... (mean cost) = (total cost)/(number of items)

You are given the mean cost and the number of items, so you can find the total cost for the 8 items as ...

... (mean cost)×(number of items) = (total cost)

... 8 × $3.05 = (total cost) = $24.40

You are given the costs of 7 of the items so ...

... (total cost) = (8th item cost) + (total cost of 7 items)

Then we can find the (8th item cost) as ...

... (8th item cost) = (total cost) - (total cost of 7 items)

Adding up the given cost of the 7 items, we get ...

... (total cost of 7 items) = $20.57

... (8th item cost) = $24.40 -20.57 = $3.83

The price of the 8th item in the bag was $3.83.

Which of the relations given by the following sets of ordered pairs is a function?
adell [148]
Functions cannot have the same X value (the first number), but they can have the same Y value (the second number).
<span>A. {(1,2),(2,3),(3,4),(2,1),(1,0)}
B. {(2,−8),(6,4),(−3,9),(2,0),(−5,3)}
C. {(1,−3),(1,−1),(1,1),(1,3),(1,5)}
D. {(−2,5),(7,5),(−4,0),(3,1),(0,−6)}

Choice A. has two repeating X values [(1,2) and (1,0), (2,3) and (2,1)]
Choice B. has one repeating X value [(2, -8) and (2,0)]
Choice C. all has a repeating X value (1)
Choice D doesn't have any repeating X values.

In short, your answer would be choice D [</span><span>{(−2,5),(7,5),(−4,0),(3,1),(0,−6)}] because it does not have any repeating X values.</span>

A rental truck cost $48 plus $0.40 per mile.
Natalija [7]
(a) If we let x be the number of miles and y be the total cost, the equation for relating the number of miles and the total cost would be,
                                y = 0.4x + 48

(b) If the rental cost is 60,
                               60 = 0.4x + 48
The value of x from the equation is 30.

(c) You may prepare the table of values by allowing x be any number and then solve for y until we arrive with an answer for y being equal to 60.

Alisiya [41]
Answer:
The total monthly cost would be $214

explanation:
They gave us 1,250, which is half of 2,500. multiplication:
1,250 = 2,500
107 = x
2 × 1,250 = 2,500
2 × 107 = 214
Therefore, the total monthly cost if the cell phone is used for 2,500 minutes is $214.
