Answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Go over to the left 3 times then up 6
The length of the rope needed is 15 feet
Given the following parameters;
- Height of the pole = 9 foot
- The distance from the <u>rope away from the base </u>of the pole is 12 feet
Required
To get the length of the rope, you will use the pythagoras theorem expressed as:
Substituting the given parameters:
c² = 9² + 12²
c² =81 + 144
c² = 225
c = √225
c = 15 feet
Therefore the length of the rope needed is 15 feet

The point of elimination is to have one variable so example
3x + 2y = 4
7X + 3y = 5
1) Try to find a way to have one variable
7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28
-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15
2) add
0 + 5y = 13
3) solve for the last variable
5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8
4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one
3x + 2(2.8) = 4
3x + 5.6 = 4
3x = -1.6
x = 0.533333333 (continue)
The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)
Hope you understand!!
