Amanda leaned a 15-foot ladder against the top of her house so she could get on the roof, which is 12 feet from the ground.

If you're trying to find the missing side of the "triangle" (the distance from the house to where the ladder touches the ground), you would use the pythagorean theorem, a²+b²=c². (c is always hypotenuse)

a²+b²=c²

12²+b²=15²

144+b²=225

b²=81

√b²=√81

b=9

What is the equation of this circle in standard form M(2,4) N(9,4) these are coordinates across the diameter of the circle?
igomit [66]
The standard form is

(x-xo)² + (y-yo)² = r²

Where xo,yo is the center of the circumference
and r is the radius.

We find the distance between the points to determine the <span>diameter

d=sqrt ((9-2)</span>² + (4-4)²<span>) = sqrt (49) = 7

The radius of the circumference is d/2 = 7/2 = 3.5

And we can see that those points are at the same coordinate y = 4 

The center is given then by , x = (9+2)/2 = 5.5
                                              y = (4+4)/2 = 4

The equation results

(x-5.5)</span>² + (y-4)² = (3.5)²<span>

The number y of hits a new website receives each month can be modeled by y = 4070ekt, where t represents the number of months th
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

<u><em>k = 0.2645</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given model:

y = 4070 e^{kt}

y = no. of hits website received = 9000 (in 3rd month)

t= no. of months website has been operational = 3

put in the above equation:

9000 = 4070  e^{3k}

\frac{9000}{4070} = e^{3k}

\frac{900}{407}=e^{3k}

<u><em>Taking natural logarithm on both sides, we get:</em></u>

ln\frac{900}{407}=ln(e^{3k})

ln\frac{900}{407}= 3k ln<em>e</em>

ln<em>e</em>=1

ln \frac{900}{407}= 3k

or k = \frac{1}{3}ln\frac{900}{(407)}

k =\frac{1}{3}(0.7936)

<em>k = 0.2645</em>
