Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
actually, it IS 7
G(5) for the sequence g = <span>{(6,3), (-4,2), (5,0)} is 0</span>
Factor out like terms
-y(7+y)=0
Let x + 1.5 be length of segment above left hand
Let 2x be length of segment below left hand
15 = x + 1.5 + 2x
15 = 3x + 1.5
15 - 1.5 = 3x
13.5 = 3x
13.5/3= 3x/3
4.5 = x
x = 4.5
This is the length above the left hand.
2x must be then 4.5*2 = 9 foot
This is the length below the left hand.
Checking
4.5 + 9 + 1.5 = 15 foot
Adding length below left hand & length of left hand to right hand:
9 + 1.5 = 10.5
The right hand is hence 10.5 foot far up the pole.
The answer is D. It is rarely stated explicitly
