The ladder, wall and floor form a right triangle, The angle where the wall and floor meets should be 90 degrees. We know the ladder and the ground makes an angle of 45 degrees, so the last angle must also be 45 degrees since all inner angles of a triangle add to 180.
In this case, we are looking for the hypotenuse. The question tells us the distance of one leg, 7 ft. Since the angle for the ladder and the wall is also 45 degrees, the second leg must also be 7 ft.
Plug this into the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) where c is the hypotenuse.
49+49=c^2
98=c^2
c=approx 9.899
The final answer is about 9.899 ft

At which root does the graph of f(x) = (x – 5)3(x + 2)2 touch the x axis?
LuckyWell [14K]
We have that
f(x) = (x – 5)³(x + 2)²

we know that
<span>the roots can touch or cross the x axis

</span>The way you can tell if the graph is going to cross the x-axis or just touch the x-axis is by looking at the power of the factor.

(x - 5)³ has a power of 3 which is an ODD number. An ODD power means that the graph will cross through the x-axis.

(x + 2)² has a power of 2 which is an EVEN number. An EVEN power means that the graph will touch the x-axis.

therefore

the answer is
<span>the graph of f(x) touch the x axis for the root x=-2
</span>
see the attached figure

What is the solution to the equation below 5+6•log2 x=14

Answer:
2.83 for log2(x)
15.81 for log(2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can get the log function by itself by subtracting the constant and dividing by the coefficient.
5 +6·log2x = 14
6·log2x = 9 . . . . . . . subtract 5
log2x = 1.5 . . . . . . . divide by 6
At this point, we're not sure what is meant by log2x.
log₂(x) = 1.5 ⇒ x = 2^1.5 ≈ 2.83
log(2x) = 1.5 ⇒ x = (10^1.5)/2 ≈ 15.81
