A 6-ft ladder is placed against a wall with its base 2 ft from the wall. How high above the ground is the top of the ladder

1 answer:

4 0

Use pythagorean theorem - a^2+ b^2 = c^2
a = 2ft, b = ?, c = 6ft
2 x 2 + b^2 = 6 x 6
4 + b^2 = 36
b^2 = 36 - 4 = 32
b = square root of 32
= 5.66ft

In ΔFGH, what is the measure of < H?

kogti [31]

X + x - 1 + 43 = 180. Solve for x. 2x +42 = 180 and 2x = 138. Therefore, x = 69. If x = 69, then angle H is 68 and angle G is 69. 68 + 69 + 43 = 180.

State the domain restriction(s) in interval notation of \displaystyle f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)f(g(x)) given: \displaystyle

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The interval notation for the domain is $[\frac{23}{3},\infty ]$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that $\:f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{3x-2},\:\text{ and }\:g\left(x\right)=x-7$

We need to find the value of $f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)$ .

Put the value of g(x) in $f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)$ .

$f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)=f(x-7)$ ....(1)

Now, put x=x-7 in $\:f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{3x-2}$

$\:f\left(x-7\right)= \sqrt{3(x-7)-2}$

$\:f\left(x-7\right)= \sqrt{3x-21-2}$

$\:f\left(x-7\right)= \sqrt{3x-23}$

From equation 1.

$f\left(g\left(x\right)\right)=\:f\left(x-7\right)= \sqrt{3x-23}$

The domain of the function is the set of input values for which a function is defined.

Here, the value of $3x-23$ should be greater or equal to 0 as the square root of a negative number is not real.

Domain= $3x-23\geq0$

$x\geq\frac{23}{3}$

The value of x is all real number greater than $\frac{23}{3}$ .

Hence, the interval notation for the domain is $[\frac{23}{3},\infty ]$ .
