If you observe the two given equations, the left hand side of both equation is the same and is equal to y.
Since the left hand side of two equations is the same, we can conclude that the right hand side of two equations must also be the same.
So, setting them right hand sides of both equations equal to each other and solving for x, we can find the solution to the simultaneous equations.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B
The distance between the building and the ladder is 34.876 foot.
<h3>What is a Right Triangle?</h3>
A triangle in which one of the angle measure is equal to 90 degree is called a right triangle.
The ladder forms a right triangle with the building and the ground,
The length of the triangle is 40 foot
The angle made by the ladder is 29.32 degree
By using Trigonometric Ratios
cos 29.32 = Base / Hypotenuse
cos 29.32 = Base / 40
0.8718 × 40 = Base
Base = 34.876 foot
Base is the distance between the building and the ladder.
Base of the ladder = 34.876 foot

Hello! There are a few things that determine whether or not something is a function. In this case, to determine whether a relation is a function, we look at the domains, which are the x-coordinates, the first number of the pair. If the number occurs in the x-coordinate for more than one pair in a relation, then it's not a function. If a number only occurs as an x-coordinate once in the relation, then it's a function. In other words, they each have only one y-coordinate in the relation. For this question, the first, second, and third relations are functions. The fourth one is not a function, because the 3 has more than one y-coordinate, so it occurs as an x-coordinate more than once. Here are the answers easier to read.
1st : yes
2nd: yes
3rd: yes
4th: no
Answer:
There are N students in the class.
We know that ONLY ONE of the inequalities is true:
N < 10
N > 10
N < 22
N > 22
We want only one of these four inequalities to be true.
Remember that if we have:
x > y
y is not a solution, because:
y > y is false.
Then:
If we take N = 10, then:
N < 22
Is the only true option.
While if we take N = 22
N > 10
is the only true option.
So there are two possible values of N.
This problem can be readily solved if we are familiar with the point-slope form of straight lines:
y-y0=m(x-x0) ...................................(1)
where
m=slope of line
(x0,y0) is a point through which the line passes.
We know that the line passes through A(3,-6), B(1,2)
All options have a slope of -4, so that should not be a problem. In fact, if we check the slope=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa), we do find that the slope m=-4.
So we can check which line passes through which point:
a. y+6=-4(x-3)
Rearrange to the form of equation (1) above,
y-(-6)=-4(x-3) means that line passes through A(3,-6) => ok
b. y-1=-4(x-2) means line passes through (2,1), which is neither A nor B
****** this equation is not the line passing through A & B *****
c. y=-4x+6 subtract 2 from both sides (to make the y-coordinate 2)
y-2 = -4x+4, rearrange
y-2 = -4(x-1)
which means that it passes through B(1,2), so ok
d. y-2=-4(x-1)
this is the same as the previous equation, so it passes through B(1,2),
this equation is ok.
Answer: the equation y-1=-4(x-2) does NOT pass through both A and B.
