Answer:

  5.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relationship between the various lengths is ...

  cd² = ac² +ad²

  cd² = (2.4 m)² + (1.8 m)² = 9.00 m²

  cd = √(9.00 m²) = 3.0 m

Since cd = cb and ab = ac+cb, we have ...

  ab = 2.4 m + 3.0 m = 5.4 m

_____

You may recognize this as a 3-4-5 right triangle with a scale factor of 0.6. We are asked for the sum of the lengths of the "4" and "5" legs, which is ...

  0.6·(4+5) = 5.4

The graph of a line gets what as the value of the slope gets bigger
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Steeper

Step-by-step explanation:

As the slope of the line increases in value, the vertical distance becomes greater compared to the horizontal distance. Like in stairs or a roof, this results in the stairs and roof becoming steeper. The line becomes more vertical and steeper in its slant.
