Answer:
11.4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the right triangle formed by the tent pole, the ground and the guy rope, where the guy rope (g) is the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras' identity
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
g² = 9² + 7² = 81 + 49 = 130 ( take the square root of both sides )
g = ≈ 11.4 feet

y = (3x)/2 + 2
Slope = 3/2
y-intercept = 2
The first point is y-intercept when x = 0 = (0,2). Now according to our slope we move 3 up (Why up? Because it's positive) and 2 right (Why right? Because it's positive).
When you move 3 up from (0,2), you get (0,5) and move 2 right which is (2,5).
Remember: slope = change in y / change in x
Points: (0,2) and (2,5)
