I saw the image. It formed 2 right triangles. 1 small and 1 big.
small triangle has a long leg of 4 feet and hypotenuse of 6 feet.
big triangle has a long leg of (x) and hypotenuse of 6 + 12 ft.

proportion:

4/6 = x / 18
4 * 18 = 6x
72 = 6x
72/6  = x
12 = x

The distance from the base of the stairs to the tallest column is 12 feet.

Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinominal? x^2-13+30
Leona [35]

Answer:

(x-3)(x-10)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor the equation, break it into two binomials which multiply to make the equation. To write these binomials (x+a)(x+b), find factors which multiply to 30 and add to -13 for a and b.

30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30

-3+-10 = -13

x^2-13x+30 = (x-3)(x-10)

A westbound train travels 16 miles per hour slower than the eastbound train. If two trains are 800 miles apart after 5 hours wha
lozanna [386]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate can be calculated as follows

x + x -16

2x-16

(2x-16)×5

10x - 80= 800

10x = 300-80

10x, = 220

x = 220/10

= 22

22-16

= 6 mph

Hence the rate of the west bound tsin is 6mph

Domain of the function of a graph with coordinates (-3,-2)
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Domain is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that coordinate of a graph is (-3, -2)

We have to find out the domain.

We know that if A and B are two sets, a mapping from A to B is the subset of cartesian product AxB.

Domain is the set of values of A which have images in B.

Use the above definition.

We have A = {-3,...} and B = {-2,....}

The mapping is from -3 to -2

Hence domain is -3
