Another wooden plank is leaning against an outside wall of a building. The bottom of the plank is 9 ft from the wall. The length

of the plank is 41 ft. Find each of the following values, and show all your work. (a) Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree.
(b) Find the height above the ground where the plank touches the wall. Round to the nearest foot.        sorry the link for the triangle isn't working

Given:
bottom of the plank or ground is 9 feet from the wall
length of the plant is 41 ft
height of the wall is unknown.

Let us use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²
a² + (9ft)² = (41ft)²
a² + 81 ft² = 1,681 ft²
a² = 1,681 ft² - 81 ft²
a² = 1,600 ft²
√a² = √1,600 ft²
a = 40 ft

The height of the wall is 40 ft.

The graph of a function, ƒ( x), is plotted on the coordinate plane. Select two of the following functions that would move the gr
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The following functions would move the graph of the function to the right on the coordinate plane.

C) f(x-3)+1

G) f(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to check for those functions which shows a horizontal shift of graph to the right.

Translation Rules:

Horizontal shift:

f(x)\rightarrow f(x+c)

If c>0 the function shifts c units to the left.

If c the function shifts c units to the right.

Vertical shift:

f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+c

If c>0 the function shifts c units to the up.

If c the function shifts c units to the down.

Applying rules to identify the translation occuring in each of the given functions.

A) f(x+2)-7

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x+2)-7

The translation shows a shift of 2 units to the left and 7 units down.

B) f(x)-3

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x)-3

The translation shows a shift of 3 units down.

C) f(x-3)+1

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x-3)+1

The translation shows a shift of 3 units to the right and 1 units up.

D) f(x)+4

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+4

The translation shows a shift of 4 units up.

F) f(x+6)

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x+6)

The translation shows a shift of 6 units to the left.

G) f(x-5)

Translation: f(x)\rightarrow f(x-5)

The translation shows a shift of 5 units to the right.

Given RT below, if S lies on RT such that the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, find the coordinates of S.
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

S(-2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached below,=. Frim the diagram, the coordinate of R and T are (-5, 3) and (-1, -5) respectively. If the ratio of RS to ST is 3:1, the coordinate of S can be gotten using the midpoint segment formula as shown;

S(X, Y) = {(ax1+bx2/a+b), (ay1+by1/a+b)} where;

x1 = -5, y1 = 3, x2 = -1, y2 = -5, a = 3 and b =1

Substitute the values into the formula;

X = ax2+bx1/a+b

X = 3(-1)+1(-5)/3+1

X = -3-5/4

X = -8/4

X = -2

Similarly;

Y = ay2+by1/a+b

Y = 3(-5)+1(3)/3+1

Y = -15+3/4

Y = -12/4

Y = -3

Hence the coordinate of the point (X, Y) is (-2, -3)
