Answer:
Solution 2. A right triangle is formed with the bottom of the flagpole, the snapped part, and the ground. One leg is of length $1 ...
Missing: picture way barely
Step-by-step explanation:
A flagpole is originally $5$ meters tall. A hurricane snaps the flagpole at a point $x$ meters above the ground so that the upper part, still attached to the stump, touches the ground $1$ meter away from the base. What is $x$?
$\text{(A) } 2.0 \qquad \text{(B) } 2.1 \qquad \text{(C) } 2.2 \qquad \text{(D) } 2.4 \qquad \text{(E) } 2.5$
Solution 1
The broken flagpole forms a right triangle with legs $1$ and $x$, and hypotenuse $5-x$. The Pythagorean theorem now states that $1^2 + x^2 = (5-x)^2$, hence $10x = 24$, and $x=\boxed{2.4}$.
(Note that the resulting triangle is the well-known $5-12-13$ right triangle, scaled by $1/5$.)
Solution 2
A right triangle is formed with the bottom of the flagpole, the snapped part, and the g
Answer:
x = 63, y = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 117 are adjacent angles and sum to 180°
x + 117 = 180 ( subtract 117 from 180 )
x = 63
x and y sum to 90°
x + y = 90
63 + y = 90 ( subtract 63 from both sides )
y = 27

Ok so we have movie ticket sales and we have 6x+9y=1,500. So for types of graphs, we have linear, exponential, quadratic, and those are the basic types of graphs. Now looking at the equation, we can quickly see that the answer is linear because, looking at the constant, 1500 and the other numbers, we can see the graph will be increasing linear. Hope this helped, feel free to ask questions if you have any!
