Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the building and the ground. The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. The height, h from the top of the ladder to the base of the house represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.
The distance from the foot of the ladder to the base of the house represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.
To determine the height, h that the ladder reaches, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
15² = 9² + h²
225 = 81 + h²
h² = 225 - 81 = 144
h = √144 = 12 feet
Options:
a. Nikki's proposed placement will light a greater area than Dylan's placement.
b. Dylan's proposed placement will light a greater area than Nikki's placement.
c. Both proposed placements will light the same sized area.
d. Nikki's proposed placement will light more than half the yard.
e. Dylan's proposed placement will light more than half the yard.
f. Dylan's proposed placement will light exactly half of the yard.
g. Nikki's proposed placement will light less than half of the yard.
Answer:
C) Both proposed placements will light the same sized area.
F) Dylan's proposed placement will light exactly half of the yard.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is (base x height) / 2, and both lights illuminate the same base and height = (60 x 38) / 2 = 1,140 sq ft
Both Dylan's and Nikki's proposed placement will lit exactly half of the yard. The yard's total area = 60 x 38 = 2,280 sq ft, which is twice the area lit by the lights.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First and foremost, all quadratics have a domain of all real numbers (as long as we are not given only a portion of the graph, or one with endpoints. Our graph does not have endpoints, so it is assumed that the tails will continue to go down into negative infinity and at the same time, the x coordinates will keep growing as well.) Since our quadratic is upside down, it has a max. That means that none of the values on the graph will be above that point. All the values will be below that highest point (the highest y-value). Y-values indicate range, and since our highest y-value is at y = 2, then the range is
y ≤ 2
Easy, just do 60 seconds which equals a minute. Since we know that now simply use 60 minutes to get you to an hour. If your doing minutes to hours make sure there is a 0 at the end.
