Answer:

4320 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The meters of fencing needed is given by the area of the Rectanglar property

Area of a rectangle = L x W

L = length 120 meters

W = Width 36 meters

Therefore

Area = 120 x 36

= 4320 square meters

4320 square meters of fencing will be needed

A rubber ball dropped on a hard surface takes a sequence of bounces, each one 1/6 as high as the preceding one. If this ball is

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

$\frac{259}{54}\text{ or }4.8\text{feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: A rubber ball dropped on a hard surface takes a sequence of bounces, each one $\frac{1}{6}$ as high as the preceding one.

TO FIND: If this ball is dropped from a height of $12$ feet, how far will it have traveled when it hits the surface the fifth time.

SOLUTION:

once the ball is dropped on hard surface it bounces $\frac{1}{6}$ of preceding one and comes down the same distance.

When the ball is dropped from $12$ feet height

after first hit $=12\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ up}+12\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ down}=4$

new height $=12\times\frac{1}{6}=2\text{feet}$

after second hit $=2\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ up}+2\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ down}=\frac{2}{3}$

new height $=2\times\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\text{ feet}$

after third hit $=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ up}+\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ down}=\frac{1}{9}$

new height $=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{18}\text{ feet}$

after fourth hit $=\frac{1}{18}\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ up}+\frac{1}{18}\times\frac{1}{6}\text{ down}=\frac{1}{54}$

adding all distance $=4+\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{54}$

$=\frac{259}{54}$ feet

Hence the ball will travel $\frac{259}{54}$ feet before it hits the surface fifth time.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line parallel to y = 2x – 2

ValentinkaMS [17]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

$y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{2}x-2\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so we're really looking for the equation of al ine whose slope is 2 and passes through (5,-4)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-4}) \qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies 2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-4)}=\stackrel{m}{2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{5})\implies y+4=2(x-5) \\\\\\ y+4=2x-10\implies y=2x-14$
