Answer: The graph is shown below
The solution to the system is (x,y) = (2,3)
=============================================================
Explanation:
To graph
, we need two points. Generating any (x,y) point involves picking a random x value to find its paired y value. For instance, if you plugged in x = 0, you should get to y = -2 which is the y intercept. Then trying something like x = 2 will lead to y = 3. This line goes through (0,-2) and (2,3). This line is shown in red below.
The blue line is horizontal and goes through 3 on the y axis. Every point on this horizontal line has the same y coordinate of 3. The x value doesn't matter, so it's not part of the equation y = 3.
The intersection of the red and blue line is the solution to the system. That intersection occurs at (x,y) = (2,3). This means x = 2 and y = 3 pair up together to make both original equations true.
Since this system has at least one solution, we consider it a consistent system.
Answer: The ladder would reach 15.3 ft up the wall
Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram.
If the ladder (represented by line AC) rests on the wall (represented by line AB), it forms an angle of 50 with the ground (at point C). The ground is represented by line BC.
We need to remember that we have one side and one angle given in this question. The given side is the hypotenuse (the side facing the right angle, B in this case) and the given angle is the reference angle. The unknown side which is x, is the opposite as it is facing the reference angle.
Having the opposite and the hypotenuse, we can use the Sine ratio which is,
Sine C = opposite/hypotenuse
Sine 50 = x/20
Checking our table of values or by use of our calculator, sin 50 is 0.766
Sin 50 = x/20
0.766 = x/20
By cross multiplication, we now have our equation rewritten as;
0.766 (20) = x
15.32 = x
Rounded to the nearest tenth,
x = 15.3 ft
ITS NUMBER c!!!hope it helps I did the test
Answer:
A) 24 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the right triangle base is ...
A = (1/2)(3)(4) = 6 ft²
The volume of the triangular prism is the product of the area of its base (6 ft²) and its height (4 ft).
V = Bh = (6 ft²)(4 ft) = 24 ft³ . . . . matches choice A

<em>Comment on the triangle</em>
You know the 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle, because you have seen those numbers many times in relation to the Pythagorean theorem. If you don't know that, then you can check to see by using the Pythagorean theorem:
5² = 3² +4²
25 = 9 + 16 . . . . . true; so the triangle is a right triangle
In any event, there are other means for finding the area of the triangle based on the lengths of its sides. You will get the same area result.
Using Heron's formula, s = (a+b+c)/2 = (3+4+5)/2 = 6.
A = √(s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c)) = √(6(3)(2)(1)) = √36 = 6 . . . . area of base triangle
Its hard to explain how to solve but I could just give you the answer: 4.4
