Answer:

C. 60 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If triangles ABC and EDC are in a 1:1 relation, they are congruent, and  

    AC = EC

5x - 5 = 3x + 9

    5x = 3x + 14

    2x = 14

      x = 7

AC = 5x + 5 = 5(7) - 5 = 35 - 5 = 30 ft

EC = 3x + 9 = 3(7) + 9 = 21 + 9 = 30 ft

Distance between top and bottom of bridge = AC + EC = 30 + 30 = 60 ft

GUYS HELP ASAP <br> CHECK THE ATTACHED PHOTO
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

As they triangles are congruent, we can say that, angle A = angle O

So, angle A = 105+25 =130

A = 180 - 130 = 50° all angles in a triangle add up to 180)

Soo 50° is the answer,

I'm not too sure about it but I think this is correct, hope this helps, correct me if I'm wrong....

Determine whether the improper integral converges or diverges, and find the value of each that converges.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Diverges

Step-by-step explanation:

For the improper integral to converge the limit must exist, if the limit does not exist or is infinite the integral diverges;

\int\limits^a_b {(2x+4)/x^2+4x+5} \, dx#

Where a and be is infinity

The solution of this is infinity and therefore the integral diverges because the first expression is undefined because ∞/∞, the second term is 4·∞ which is infinity and infinity added to any number is infinity

Please show work for full credit!<br><br> 10^6/ 10^2= 10^3<br><br> Why is that false?
noname [10]
10^6/10² = 10³

10^(6 - 2) = 10³

10^4 = 10³

10000 = 1000  

this is false because both sides are not equal to each other which is not a solution.

hope this helps, God bless!
